I’m not surprised you made this choice. When the going gets tough, Elsie avoids the questions. Just as I thought.
Romans 3:20-25
20. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in his sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin.
21. But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.
22. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference,
23. for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, *
24. and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
* (Vulgate: except for Mary - the Mother of GOD.)
