Law or Faith

 

 

Galatians 3:1-14

 

 

1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, to whom Jesus Christ before was described in your sight, and among you crucified?

 

2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of faith preached?

 

3 Are ye so foolish, that after ye have begun in the Spirit, ye would now be made perfect by the flesh?

 

4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? If so be it be even in vain.

 

5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it through the works of the Law, or by the hearing of faith preached?

 

6 Yea rather as Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness.

 

7 Know ye therefore, that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

 

8 For the Scripture foreseeing, that God would justify the Gentiles through faith, preached before the Gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all the Gentiles be blessed.

 

9 So then they which be of faith, are blessed with faithful Abraham.

 

10 For as many as are of the works of the Law, are under the curse; for it is written, Cursed is every man that continueth not in all things, which are written in the book of the Law, to do them.

 

11 And that no man is justified by the Law in the sight of God, it is evident; for the just shall live by faith.

 

12 And the Law is not of faith; but the man that shall do those things, shall live in them.

 

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the Law, made a curse for us, (for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on tree.)

 

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
