Galatians 3:21-Galatians 4:7 - The Purpose Of The Law Of Moses

²¹ Is the law then opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given which could impart life, then righteousness would indeed have come by the law. ²² But the Scripture has bound everyone under sin, so that that what was promised by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. ²³ Now before faith came, we were bound under the law, kept under restraint until faith should be revealed. ²⁴ So the law was our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. ²⁵ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. ²⁶ For you are all sons of God, through faith in Christ Jesus.

²⁷ For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. ²⁸ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. ²⁹ And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

¹ I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave, although he is the owner of all the estate; ² but he is under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father. ³ So also, when we were children, we were in slavery under the elemental things of the world. ⁴ But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, ⁵ to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. ⁶ Because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!" ⁷ So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir through God.
