Galatians:3:15-25
asv@Galatians:3:15 @Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man's covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto.
asv@Galatians:3:16 @Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
asv@Galatians:3:17 @Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.
asv@Galatians:3:18 @For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.
asv@Galatians:3:19 @What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise hath been made; and it was ordained through angels by the hand of a mediator.
asv@Galatians:3:20 @Now a mediator is not a mediator of one; but God is one.
asv@Galatians:3:21 @Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could make alive, verily righteousness would have been of the law.
asv@Galatians:3:22 @But the scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
asv@Galatians:3:23 @But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
asv@Galatians:3:24 @So that the law is become our tutor to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
asv@Galatians:3:25 @But now faith that is come, we are no longer under a tutor.
