Galatians 3:19-29 - The Addition Of The Law
19 Then what about the Law? Well, it was interpolated for the purpose of producing transgressions till such time as the Offspring arrived to whom the Promise was made; also, it was transmitted by means of angels through the agency of an intermediary 20 (an intermediary implies more than one party, but God is one). 21 Then the Law is contrary to God's Promises? Never! Had there been any law which had the power of producing life, righteousness would really have been due to law, 22 but Scripture has consigned all without exception to the custody of sin, in order that the promise due to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who have faith. 23 Before this faith came, we were confined by the Law and kept in custody, with the prospect of the faith that was to be revealed; 24 the Law thus held us as wards in discipline, till such time as Christ came, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But faith has come, and we are wards no longer; 26 you are all sons of God by your faith in Christ Jesus
27 (for all of you who had yourselves baptized into Christ have taken on the character of Christ). 28 There is no room for Jew or Greek, there is no room for slave or freeman, there is no room for male and female; you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 Now if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring; in virtue of the Promise, you are heirs.
