Therefore those who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. For so many as are of works of law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one who does not abide in all things which have been written in the book of the law, to do the same. But that no one is justified by law in the sight of God, is evident: because, The just shall live by faith: though the law is not of faith; but the one having done these things shall live in them. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: because it has been written; Cursed is every one having been hung on the wood: in order that the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus may come to the Gentiles; in order that we may receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

He does not say, And unto seeds, as of many; but as of one; And thy seed, which is Christ. And I say this; The law which was given after four hundred and thirty years, does not disannul the covenant which had been before confirmed of God, so as to make the promise of none effect. For if the inheritance were by law, it is no more by promise: but God gave it to Abraham through the promise.
