Galatians 3:23-4:5 (Epistle)
- 23
- But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed.
- 24
- Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
- 25
- But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.
- 26
- For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
- 27
- For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
- 28
- There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
- 29
- And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
- 1
- Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,
- 2
- but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.
- 3
- Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.
- 4
- But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,
- 5
- to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
