Lately, these have been the go to verses to hold on to. 
Romans 3:21-31
But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets.
And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.
There is no distinction, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
God presented Him as the atoning sacrifice through faith in His blood, in order to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance He had passed over the sins committed beforehand.
He did this to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and to justify the one who has faith in Jesus.
Where, then, is boasting?
It is excluded.
On what principle?
On that of works?
No, but on that of faith.
For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.
Is God the God of Jews only?
Is He not the God of Gentiles too?
Yes, of Gentiles too, since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.
Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith?
Certainly not!
Instead, we uphold the law.
Titus3:9-11
But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, arguments, and quarrels about the law, because these things are pointless and worthless.
Reject a divisive man after a first and second admonition, knowing that such a man is corrupt and sinful; he is self-condemned.
2 Timothy 2:22-26
Flee from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, together with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
But reject foolish and ignorant speculation, for you know that it breeds quarreling.
And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing.
He must gently reprove those who oppose him, in the hope that God may grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth.
Then they will come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, who has taken them captive to his will.
2 Peter 2:1-3
Now there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.
They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction on themselves.
Many will follow in their depravity, and because of them the way of truth will be defamed.
In their greed, these false teachers will exploit you with deceptive words.
The longstanding verdict against them remains in force, and their destruction does not sleep.
Jude 1:4
For certain men have crept in among you unnoticedâungodly ones who were designated long ago for condemnation.
They turn the grace of our God into a license for immorality, and they deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
Sounds like with a 1/4 mile driveway and a dog, you wonât be having any problems at all.
Is he/she your dog? Can I borrow for when or if the Joe squad arrives? 
Just kidding. Ours are little ankle biters, so too small to scare anyone.
