Galatians 3:13-18
New King James Version
13 (A)Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, (B)“Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), 14 (C)that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the (D)Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive (E)the promise of the Spirit through faith.
The Changeless Promise(F)
15 Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: (G)Though it is only a man’s covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it. 16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of (H)one, (I)“And to your Seed,” who is (J)Christ. 17 And this I say, that the law, (K)which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God [a]in Christ, (L)that it should make the promise of no effect. 18 For if (M)the inheritance is of the law, (N)it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Sons and Heirs
26 For you (A)are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For (B)as many of you as were baptized into Christ (C)have put on Christ. 28 (D)There is neither Jew nor Greek, (E)there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all (F)one in Christ Jesus. 29 And (G)if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s (H)seed, and (I)heirs according to the promise.
