No one has ever been justified or counted righteous simply by obeying the law. since Adam to today, its ONLY by faith that one has be commended.

If you have examples (from creation until today) .......please share them.

(NB. NO where have I said that Christians shoule live sinful lives)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the
Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified.

"But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have
also been found sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? May it
never be!

"For if I rebuild what I have once destroyed, I prove myself to be a
transgressor. For through the Law I died to the Law, so that I might
live to God.

"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live,
but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I
live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for
me.

"I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."

Galatians 2:16-21 NASB
