²⁷ As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.^{(A) 28} There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.^{(B) 29} And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s offspring,^[a] heirs according to the promise.^(C)

¹⁷ “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”^(A)

²¹ For our sake God made the one who knew no sin to be sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.^(A)

¹¹ And this is what some of you used to be. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ^[a] and in the Spirit of our God.^(A)

³¹ in order that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in^[a] the Lord.”^(A)

⁶ It is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all those descended from Israel are Israelites,^{(A) 7} and not all of Abraham’s children are his descendants, but “it is through Isaac that descendants shall be named for you.”^{(B) 8} This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as descendants.

³³ Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.^{(A) 34} Who is to condemn? It is Christ^[a] who died, or rather, who was raised, who is also at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us.^(B)

³⁰ And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.^(A)
