Lev 18:5 | MHM | STEP | The apostle Paul explains that this rule was the “righteousness by the law,” but because no one can keep God’s law perfectly, we now have life by faith in Jesus Christ, not by our own works (Romans 10:5; Galatians 3:12, 21, 22 ). Now, the just shall live by faith in Christ, who is our true source of life.
