Having begun in the Spirit, do you now perfect yourself in the flesh?<br \/>\nGal 3:4  Did you suffer so much vainly, if indeed it also was vainly?<br \/>\nGal 3:5  Then He supplying the Spirit to you and working works of power in you, is it by works of Law or by hearing of faith?<br \/>\nGal 3:6  Even &#8220;as Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness,&#8221; Gen 15:6<br \/>\nGal 3:7  know, then, that those of faith, these are sons of Abraham.<br \/>\nGal 3:8  And the Scripture foreseeing that God would justify the nations by faith, preached the gospel before to Abraham: &#8220;All the nations will be blessed&#8221; &#8220;in you.&#8221; Gen. 12:3<br \/>\nGal 3:9  So that those of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.<br \/>\nGal 3:10  For as many as are out of works of Law, these are under a curse. For it has been written, &#8220;Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all the things having been written in the book of the Law, to do them.&#8221; Deut. 27:26<br \/>\nGal 3:11  And that no one is justified by Law before God is clear because, &#8220;The just shall live by faith.&#8221; Hab. 2:4<br \/>\nGal 3:12  But the Law is not of faith, but, &#8220;The man doing these things shall live in them.&#8221; Lev. 18:5<br \/>\nGal 3:13  Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us; for it has been written, &#8220;Cursed is everyone having been hung on a tree;&#8221; Deut. 21:23<br \/>\nGal 3:14  that the blessing of Abraham might be to the nations in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.<br \/>\nGal 3:15  Brothers, I speak according to man, a covenant having been ratified, even among mankind, no one sets aside or adds to it.<br \/>\nGal 3:16  But the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his Seed (it does not say, And to seeds, as of many, but as of one, &#8220;And to your Seed,&#8221; which is Christ). Genesis 3:15; 21:12; 22:18, Rom. 9:6; Heb. 11:18<br \/>\nGal 3:17  And I say this, A covenant having been ratified before to Christ by God, the Law coming into being four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul the promise, so as to abolish it.<br \/>\nGal 3:18  For if the inheritance is of Law, it is no more of promise; but God has given it to Abraham through promise.<br \/>\nGal 3:19  Why the Law then? It was for the sake of transgressions, until the Seed should come, to whom it had been promised, being ordained through angels in a mediator&#8217;s hand.<br \/>\nGal 3:20  But the Mediator is not of one, but God is one.<br \/>\nGal 3:21  Then is the Law against the promises of God? Let it not be! For if a law had been given which had been able to make alive, indeed righteousness would have been out of Law.<br \/>\nGal 3:22  But the Scripture locked up all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to the ones believing.<br \/>\nGal 3:23  But before the coming of faith, we were guarded under Law, having been locked up to the faith being about to be revealed.<br \/>\nGal 3:24  So that the Law has become a trainer of us until Christ, that we might be justified by faith.<br \/>\nGal 3:25  But faith coming, we are no longer under a trainer;<br \/>\nGal 3:26  for you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.<br \/>\nGal 3:27  For as many as were baptized into Christ, you put on Christ.<br \/>\nGal 3:28  There cannot be Jew nor Greek, there is no slave nor freeman, there is no male and female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.<br \/>\nGal 3:29  And if you are of Christ, then you are a seed of Abraham, even heirs according to promise. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gal 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who bewitched you not to obey the truth, to whom before your eyes Jesus Christ was written before among you crucified?
