  • Rom 2:17-29 : 17 Now you, if you call yourself a Jew, and rely on the law and boast in God, 18 and know His will and approve things that are excellent, being instructed from the law, 19 and are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those in darkness, 20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the form of knowledge and truth— 21 You then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? 22 You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 23 You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? 24 For as it is written, 'The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.' 25 Circumcision indeed has value if you obey the law, but if you are a lawbreaker, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. 26 So, if those who are uncircumcised keep the righteous requirements of the law, will their uncircumcision not be regarded as circumcision? 27 The one who is not physically circumcised but keeps the law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker. 28 For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. 29 But a person is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. Such a person’s praise is not from people, but from God.
  • Rom 3:19-20 : 19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. 20 Therefore no one will be justified in His sight by works of the law; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
  • John 9:28-29 : 28 They ridiculed him and said, 'You are His disciple, but we are disciples of Moses!' 29 'We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where He is from.'
  • Rom 2:12 : 12 For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.
  • Rom 7:9-9 : 9 At one time I was alive apart from the law; but when the commandment came, sin came to life and I died. 10 I found that the very commandment that was intended to bring life actually brought death. 11 For sin, seizing the opportunity provided by the commandment, deceived me and through the commandment put me to death. 12 So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good. 13 Did what is good then become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, in order to be recognized as sin, used what is good to bring about my death, so that sin might become utterly sinful through the commandment. 14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
  • Rom 10:5-9 : 5 For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.” 6 But the righteousness that is based on faith speaks as follows: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 or, “‘Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the message of faith that we proclaim): 9 If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses unto salvation.
  • 2 Cor 3:7-9 : 7 If the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not look intently at Moses’ face because of its glory, which was passing away, 8 will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? 9 For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness far exceeds it in glory. 10 Indeed, what once had glory now has no glory at all because of the surpassing glory. 11 For if what was passing away came with glory, how much greater is the glory of what remains!
  • Gal 3:10 : 10 For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: 'Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.'
  • Matt 19:7-8 : 7 They said to him, "Why then did Moses command that a certificate of divorce be given and the woman sent away?" 8 He said to them, "Moses allowed you to divorce your wives because of the hardness of your hearts, but it was not this way from the beginning."
  • John 7:19 : 19 Didn't Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why are you trying to kill Me?
  • John 8:5-6 : 5 In the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?" 6 They said this to test him, so they might have grounds to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down and began writing on the ground with his finger.
  • John 8:9 : 9 When they heard this, they began to leave one by one, starting with the older ones, until only Jesus was left with the woman standing there.
