JUSTIFICATION as taught by Paul.
...
Reading theHIGHLIGHTED sectionsfrom Paul, can you show where Paul teaches that works ( law or righteousness) are required for a believer to be saved ?

1Moreover, brethren, I declare unto youthe gospelwhich I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2By which alsoye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how thatChrist died for our sinsaccording to the scriptures;
4And that hewas buried, and that herose again the third dayaccording to the scriptures:
...
8Forby graceare yesaved through faith; and thatnot of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9Not of works, lest any man should boast.
..
16Knowing that a man isnot justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law:for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
...
24Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28Thereforewe conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
..
3For what saith the scripture?Abraham believed God,and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
4Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5Butto him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly,his faith is counted for righteousness.
6Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
7Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
..
5Not by works of righteousnesswhich we have done,but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
