Galatians 3:2-10

2I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard?

3Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?

4Have you experienced so much in vain—if it really was in vain?

5So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?

6So also Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”

7Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham.

8Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”

9So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

10For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
