• Thus, in Christ Jesus, the blessing of Abraham was to be imparted to the Gentiles, so that we, through faith, might receive the promised gift of the Spirit. (Galatians 3, 14)

• Brethren, let me take an argument from common life. A valid legal disposition made by an ordinary human being cannot afterwards be set aside; no one can make fresh provisions in it.✻ (Galatians 3, 15)

• The promises you know of were made to Abraham and his offspring; (it does not, by the way, say, To thy descendants, as if it meant a number of people; it says, To thy offspring, in the singular, meaning Christ).✻ (Galatians 3, 16)

• And this is my contention; the law, coming into being four hundred and thirty years afterwards, cannot unmake the disposition which God made so long ago, and cancel the promise. (Galatians 3, 17)

• If our inheritance depends on observing the law, then it is not the inheritance secured to us by promise; that was promised to Abraham as a free gift. (Galatians 3, 18)

• What, then, is the purpose of the law? It was brought in to make room for transgression, while we waited for the coming of that posterity, to whom the promise had been made. Its terms were dictated by angels, acting through a spokesman;✻ (Galatians 3, 19)

• (a spokesman represents more than one, and there is only one God). (Galatians 3, 20)

• But in fact scripture represents us as all under the bondage of sin; it was faith in Jesus Christ that was to impart the promised blessing to all those who believe in him.✻ (Galatians 3, 22)

• Until faith came, we were all being kept in bondage to the law, waiting for the faith that was one day to be revealed. (Galatians 3, 23)

• When faith comes, then we are no longer under the rule of a tutor; (Galatians 3, 25)

• through faith in Christ Jesus you are all now God’s sons. (Galatians 3, 26)

• no more Jew or Gentile, no more slave and freeman, no more male and female; you are all one person in Jesus Christ. (Galatians 3, 28)
