THE EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE GALATIANS.
CHAPTER 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.
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.
22 But the scripture hath concluded all
under sin, that the promise by faith of
Jesus Christ might be given to them that
believe.
23 But before faith came, we were kept
under the law, shut up unto the faith which
should afterwards be revealed.
24 Wherefore the law was our
schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that
we might be justified by faith.
25 But after that faith is come, we are no
longer under a schoolmaster.
29 And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye
Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to
the promise.
