Galatians 3:21-26

Galatians 3:21-26 CSB

Is the law therefore contrary to God’s promises? Absolutely not! For if the law had been granted with the ability to give life, then righteousness would certainly be on the basis of the law. But the Scripture imprisoned everything under sin’s power,  , so that the promise might be given on the basis of faith  in Jesus Christ to those who believe.  Before this faith  came, we were confined under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith was revealed.  The law, then, was our guardian until Christ,  so that we could be justified by faith. But since that faith  has come, we are no longer under a guardian, for through faith you are all sons of God in Christ Jesus.
