Galatians 3 — KJVCP
3Verse 1O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?Verse 2This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?Verse 3Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?Verse 4Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.Verse 5He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?Verse 6Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.Verse 7Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.Verse 8And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.Verse 9So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.Verse 10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.Verse 11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.Verse 12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.Verse 13Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:Verse 14that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Verse 15Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.Verse 16Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.Verse 17And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.Verse 18For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.Verse 19Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.Verse 20Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.Verse 21Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.Verse 22But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.Verse 23But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.Verse 24Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.Verse 25But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.Verse 26For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.Verse 27For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.Verse 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.Verse 29And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
