The Addition Of The Law

21 Is the Law then against the promises of God? Let it not be said! For if a law had been given which could have given life, indeed righteousness would have been out of Law. 22 But the Scripture shut up all under sin, so that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under Law, having been shut up to the faith about to be revealed.
