Galatians 3:21-28

21Is the law therefore opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that was able to give life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.

22But the scripture imprisoned everything and everyone under sin so that the promise could be given – because of the faithfulness of Jesus Christ – to those who believe.

23Now before faith came we were held in custody under the law, being kept as prisoners until the coming faith would be revealed.

24Thus the law had become our guardian until Christ, so that we could be declared righteous by faith.

25But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

26For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith.

27For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female – for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.
