3Galatians 3

1O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?Select Galatians 3:1

2This only would I learn of you, Received you the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?Select Galatians 3:2

3Are you so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are you now made perfect by the flesh?Select Galatians 3:3

4Have you suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.Select Galatians 3:4

5He therefore that ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, does he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?Select Galatians 3:5

6Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.Select Galatians 3:6

7Know you therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.Select Galatians 3:7

8And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel to Abraham, saying, In you shall all nations be blessed.Select Galatians 3:8

9So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.Select Galatians 3:9

10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.Select Galatians 3:10

11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.Select Galatians 3:11

12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in them.Select Galatians 3:12

13Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:Select Galatians 3:13

14That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Select Galatians 3:14

15Brothers, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man cancels, or adds thereto.Select Galatians 3:15

16Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He says not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is Christ.Select Galatians 3:16

17And 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 cancel, that it should make the promise of none effect.Select Galatians 3:17

18For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.Select Galatians 3:18

19Why then serves 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.Select Galatians 3:19

20Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.Select Galatians 3:20

21Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness should have been by the law.Select Galatians 3:21

22But the scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.Select Galatians 3:22

23But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up to the faith which should afterwards be revealed.Select Galatians 3:23

24Why the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.Select Galatians 3:24

25But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.Select Galatians 3:25

26For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.Select Galatians 3:26

27For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.Select Galatians 3:27

28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus.Select Galatians 3:28

29And if you be Christ’s, then are you Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.Select Galatians 3:29
