Acts 13:38, 39 (KJ21)
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this Man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the Law of Moses.

Acts 13:38, 39 (NAS)
Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through Him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and through Him everyone who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be freed through the Law of Moses.

Acts 13:38, 39 (NIVUS)
Therefore, my brothers, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is justified from everything you could not be justified from by the law of Moses.

Acts 13:38, 39 (NLT)
Brothers, listen! In this man Jesus there is forgiveness for your sins. Everyone who believes in him is freed from all guilt and declared right with God—something the Jewish law could never do.

There are many important principles that you need to learn about the kingdom of God. One of the first that needs to be announced and proclaimed to you is that Yeshua, the Messiah, has released you from bondage and imprisonment. He paid for the pardon and forgiveness of your sins. Through the blood of Jesus, God has let your sins go as if they had never been committed. The penalty has been remitted. Sin cannot hinder you any longer. Now you have the power to no longer wander from the path of uprightness and honor. You have no desire to do wrong or violate God's law.

Indeed since you are persuaded and believe in Jesus Christ and have made Him your Lord, you are rendered righteous. Adonai, the Most High, has pronounced you just and upright. Your are virtuous and keep the commands of God. You are innocent, faultless, and guiltless. You are being wholly conformed to the will of God. You are approved and accepted of the Lord.

You are now separated from all those things that rendered you unrighteous. Even though the Law of Moses was able to convict you of sin, you are no longer under its jurisdiction. The grace of Jesus Christ has forever set you free.
