emtv - Galatians:3:15-25

emtv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brothers, I speak in human fashion: A covenant is of a man, yet having been confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

emtv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises spoken. He does not say, "And to seeds,"as of many, but as of one, "And to your Seed,"who is Christ.

emtv@Galatians:3:17 @ And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, does not annul the covenant previously confirmed to Christ by God, so that it make the promise of no effect.

emtv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance [comes] by the law, it is no longer of promise; but God has given it to Abraham by promise.

emtv@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then the law? It was added on account of transgressions, until the Seed should come to whom it had been promised; and it was commanded through angels by the hand of a mediator.

emtv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now the mediator is not for one person, but God is one.

emtv@Galatians:3:21 @ Therefore, [is] the law against the promises of God? By no means! For if a law had been given which was able to give life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.

emtv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture has confined all under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

emtv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, having been hemmed in for the faith which was to be revealed.

emtv@Galatians:3:24 @ Therefore the law has become our custodian, [leading us] to Christ, so that we might be justified by faith.

emtv@Galatians:3:25 @ But after faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian.
