C. Justification Is by Faith, Not by the Law.................... 3:10-4:11 Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.Gal 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.Gal 3:12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.Gal 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:Gal 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Gal 3:15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.Gal 3:17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.Gal 3:18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.Gal 3:19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.Gal 3:20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.Gal 3:21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.Gal 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.Gal 3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.Gal 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.Gal 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.Gal 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.Gal 4:1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;Gal 4:2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.Gal 4:3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:Gal 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,Gal 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.Gal 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.Gal 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.Gal 4:8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.Gal 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?Gal 4:10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.Gal 4:11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain. |
