that unto the Gentiles the benediction pronounced on Abraham might come by Jesus Christ, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.

Now this I say, the covenant confirmed of God to Christ, the law, which was given three hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, so as to vacate the promise.

For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more by promise; but to Abraham God gave it freely by promise.

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.

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.

But if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Now the son of the bond-maid was born after the flesh, but that by the free woman was by promise.

So we, brethren, as Isaac, are the children of the promise.
