Galatians 3:19-29 - The Addition Of The Law
19 Then what is the law? It was added on account of the transgressions, until the seed to whom the promise was made should come; being ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20 A mediator is not of one; but God is one. 21 Then was the law against the promises of God? it could not be so. For if the law was given being able to create life, truly justification would have been by law: 22 but the scripture has shut up all things unto sin, in order that the promise through faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under law, being shut up to the faith about to be revealed. 24 Therefore the law became our schoolmaster to lead us to Christ, in order that we may be justified by faith; 25 but faith having come, we are no longer under the schoolmaster. 26 For you are all the sons of God, through faith, in Christ Jesus;
27 for so many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is no longer Jew nor Greek, nor bond nor free, nor male and female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 But if you belong to Christ then you are the seed of Abraham, heirs according to the promise.
