updv Galatians:3:15-25
updv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brothers, I speak after the manner of men: Though it is but a man's covenant, yet when it has been confirmed, no one makes it void, or adds thereto.
updv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is Christ.
updv@Galatians:3:17 @ Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not disannul, so as to make the promise of no effect.
updv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God has granted it to Abraham by promise.
updv@Galatians:3:19 @ What then is the law? It was added because of transgressions, until the seed should come to whom the promise has been made; [and it was] directed through angels by the hand of a mediator.
updv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one; but God is one.
updv@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could bring life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.
updv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scriptures shut up all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
updv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept in ward under the law, shut up to the faith which should afterward be revealed.
updv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the law has become our tutor [to bring us] to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
updv@Galatians:3:25 @ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
