Galatians 3:14

Justified By The Law, Or Justified By Faith?

¹³ Christ ransomed us from the Law's curse by taking our curse upon himself (for the Scripture says, "Cursed be anyone who is hung on a tree") ¹⁴ in order that the blessing given to Abraham might through Jesus Christ reach the heathen, so that through faith we might receive the promised Spirit. ¹⁵ To take an illustration, brothers, from daily life: even a human agreement, once ratified, no one annuls or alters.
