THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH / GALATIANS 3:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Galatians 3:11

But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH / GALATIANS 3:11

Paul quotes Habakkuk 2:4 to illustrate how a person is justified (made right with God) by faith (Romans 1:17), not by works. The prophet Habakkuk pointed out that one who is justified by faith possesses true inward righteousness (a right relationship with God regarding character, attitudes and actions and the ability to do right by His standard). The prophet contrasted the righteous person with the unrighteous person whose “desires are not upright” (Habakkuk 2:4). Paul also believed that justification by faith involved an actual inner righteousness, not because of a believer’s own efforts and spirit, but because of Christ’s work and the power of the Holy Spirit living within the believer.
