Galatians 3:19-29 - The Addition Of The Law

19 Then what about the Law? It was a later addition, designed to produce transgressions, until the descendant to which the promise was made should come, and it was enacted by means of angels, through an intermediary; 20 though an intermediary implies more than one party, while God is but one. 21 Is the Law then contrary to God's promises? By no means. For if a law had been given that could have brought life, uprightness would really have come through law. 22 But the Scripture describes all mankind as the prisoners of sin, so that the promised blessing might on the ground of faith in Jesus Christ be given to those who have faith. 23 But before this faith came, we were kept shut up under the Law, in order to obtain the faith that was to be revealed. 24 So the Law has been our attendant on our way to Christ, so that we might be made upright through faith. 25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer in the charge of the attendant. 26 For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through your faith.

27 For all of you who have been baptized into union with Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is no room for "Jew" and "Greek"; there is no room for "slave" and "freeman"; there is no room for "male" and "female"; for in union with Christ Jesus you are all one. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are true descendants of Abraham and his heirs under the promise.
