Galatians 3:15-29, "Law & Promise"

God’s promise to Abraham was a gift of grace, not something earned through effort. When the law came centuries later, it didn’t cancel or replace that promise—it revealed just how much we need it. The law exposed our sin and humbled us, like a stern tutor preparing us for the arrival of Christ. But now that Christ has come, we are no longer under the law—we are adopted as God’s children through faith, fully loved and fully accepted. In Jesus, we are united, made heirs of a rich inheritance that includes not only forgiveness and the Spirit now, but the whole world to come. From beginning to end, our standing with God rests not on what we do, but on what Christ has done.
