Galatians 3:4-9

4Did you 1suffer so many things in vain--2if indeed it was in vain? 5So then, does He who 3provides you with the Spirit and 4works 5miracles among you, do it by works of 6the Law, or by 7hearing 8with faith?

6Just as 9Abraham 10believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness. 7Therefore, recognize that 11it is those who are of faith who are 12sons of Abraham. 8The Scripture, foreseeing that God 13would justify the 14Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “15All the nations will be blessed in you.” 9So then, 16those who are of faith are blessed with 17Abraham, the believer.
