Galatians 3:19-29 - The Addition Of The Law
19 To what end then was the law given? It was given on account of transgressions, until that seed should come to whom the promise was made, being delivered through the ministry of angels into the hand of a mediator. 20 But the mediator of the one [seed] he is not, though God is one. 21 Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? God forbid. For if there had been a law given which was capable of procuring life, verily righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the scripture hath shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before the faith came, we were in ward under the law, shut up together for the faith that should be revealed. 24 Wherefore the law was our conductor, as of children, to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But when faith was come, we were no longer under a paedagogue. 26 For ye are all the sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptised into Christ, have been invested with Christ. 28 There is no more Jew or Gentile, there is no more slave or freeman, there is no more male or female: but ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 But if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
