Galatians 3:19-29 - The Addition Of The Law
19 What then availeth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come, to whom the promise was made; and it was delivered by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator is not the mediator of one only; and God is but one. 21 Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? not at all: for if a law had been given, which could have confered life, certainly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the scripture hath shut up all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept shut up under the law, till the faith appeared which was to be revealed. 24 So that the law was our guide to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But now faith is come we are no longer under a pedagogue. 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ, have put on Christ: 28 and there is neither Jew nor Greek, those is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
