| Apr 13, 2021 at 13:38 | comment | added | user38524 | @RobbieGoodwin - if by "shall live" it is meant to live eternally, then salvation is implied. And therefore, it would mean that by keeping the law someone can obtain eternal life. In other words, salvation conditioned on obeying the law / doing stuff (i.e. works-based salvation), which would contradict Galatians 3. Of course, this relies on the initial premise being true. That's why this is a question and not an answer. Feel free to post an answer dispelling the contradiction if you want. | |

| Apr 11, 2021 at 19:35 | comment | added | Robbie Goodwin | Not at all. Your verses state merely that a person "shall live". If you want "live" to mean "be saved", where is your justification? Either way, how could what you Posted describe "works-based" anything, or any kind of "salvation"? Can you say how the Posted verses conflict with Galatians 3, et al, teaching that salvation is by faith, not works? | |
