It is excluded. By what Lawe? of woorkes? Nay: but by the Lawe of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude, that a man is iustified by faith, without the workes of the Lawe. 29 God, is he the God of the Iewes onely, and not of the Gentiles also? Yes, euen of the Gentiles also. 30 For it is one God, who shall iustifie circumcision of faith, and vncircumcision through faith. 31 Doe we then make the Lawe of none effect through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the Lawe.
