Now to Abraham and his descendant were the promises made. He says not, And to descendants, as of many; but as of one, And to your descendant, who is Christ. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before by God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of no effect. For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.Galatians 3:16–18 KJ2000(Apologies for several microphone problems throughout the study.)An unedited version of this study, featuring additional introductory and concluding questions from the audience, can be heard and downloaded below:[x_audio_player advanced_controls="true" mp3="https://www.borntowin.net/files/audio/sermon/99B1_rld_a_review_of_galatians_3_15-21.mp3" advanced_controls="true"]

Get the notes here!In this study of Galatians 3:15–29, we examine Paul's argument that the promise to Abraham was fulfilled in Christ and cannot be nullified by the Law given 430 years later. What was the purpose of the Law? How does the singular “seed” point to Christ? And how are believers made heirs of the promise through faith? This verse-by-verse study explores covenant, justification by faith, and the relationship between Law and promise.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/lets-talk-scripture/donations

In baptism, we focus on and celebrate not what we have done to deserve Christ, but on what God has done. He saves the helpless sinners like you and me.

In Galatians 3:1–14, Paul argues that salvation and the gift of the Spirit come by faith in Christ, not by works of the Law. He appeals to the Galatians' own experience, to Abraham's justification by faith, and to Scripture itself to show that the Law brings a curse because it demands perfect obedience. Christ redeems believers from that curse by becoming a curse on the cross, so that both Jews and Gentiles receive the blessing of Abraham and the Spirit through faith alone.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/lets-talk-scripture/donations

The Promise given to Abraham was based on God alone, merely requiring Abraham to respond in faith. How does that make it different/better that the Law which required the people to keep their end? 3. If the Law does not exist to give life or righteousness, why was it given? 4. What purpose does the Law have for us today? 5. Question for thought this week: What do I teach others about God’s Law? What do I communicate through my life, actions, words, etc.

Galatians 3:1-5

"What was the purpose of the Mosaic Law—and just as importantly, what was it not given to do? In Galatians 3:15–18, the Apostle Paul answers a crucial question that lies at the heart of the doctrine of justification by faith: Was the law ever meant to overturn God's promise of salvation in Christ?In this sermon, we examine Paul's legal and redemptive-historical argument that once God ratified the covenant of promise with Abraham, it could not be annulled by the law that came 430 years later. The promise of inheritance and worldwide blessing was never grounded in obedience to the law, but in God's gracious promise—fulfilled in Abraham's singular seed, Jesus Christ.We also address Paul's much-debated grammatical argument concerning the “seed” of Abraham, showing how it is rooted in the Hebrew text itself and climaxes in Genesis 22:18. Far from undermining Moses, Paul demonstrates that the Mosaic Law was always subordinate to—and supportive of—the promise of salvation in Christ.This passage decisively refutes the idea that the Old Testament taught salvation by works, and it affirms the fundamental unity of Scripture: from beginning to end, the Bible proclaims one gospel—salvation by grace through faith in the promised Messiah.May God grant us grace to see the glory of this salvation and to cling to Christ alone, in whom all the promises of God find their “Yes” and “Amen.”#Galatians #JustificationByFaith #LawAndGospel #AbrahamicCovenant #ChristInTheOT #BiblicalTheology #ReformedTheology #SolaFide #PromiseAndLaw #JesusChrist #ExpositoryPreaching"

Jan 25, 2026 - Pastor John Keen expounds on Galatians 3:15-29

Paul an apostle—sent neither by human commission nor from human authorities, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—and all the members of God’s family who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to set us free from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—not that there is another gospel, but there are some who are confusing you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.Galatians 1:1–7 NRSV(Canon in D link mentioned in Ron's introduction.)

In this episode of the MRO off-season Bible reading plan we share a short devotion on Galatians 3.

Galatians 2 shows Paul defending the true Gospel: salvation by grace alone, in Christ alone, through faith alone. The church is called to stand firm against adding requirements and to protect the freedom Christ gives.

"In Galatians 3:13–14, the Apostle Paul brings his argument for justification by faith to its Christ-centered climax. After showing that the Spirit, the Scriptures, and even the law itself testify that sinners cannot be justified by works, Paul now explains how salvation is actually accomplished: through the cursed death of Christ on the cross.This passage shows that justification by faith is not an abstract theological principle but is grounded entirely in the saving work of Jesus Christ. Paul insists that every blessing of the gospel flows from one central reality—Christ became a curse for us. Those who stand condemned by the law are redeemed because Christ took their curse upon himself in a substitutionary death.By quoting Deuteronomy 21:23, Paul highlights the shocking nature of the cross. Christ did not merely die; he died the kind of death the law itself declares to be cursed. This forces the crucial question: Why would the sinless Son of God endure such a death? Paul's answer is clear—he did it for us, so that we might be delivered from condemnation and receive the blessing promised to Abraham.Paul then shows that Christ's death accomplishes two great purposes:The blessing of Abraham comes to the Gentiles—justification and worldwide salvation promised long ago are fulfilled in Christ, Abraham's true seed.The promised Spirit is given through faith—the Spirit himself is a purchased blessing, poured out because Christ has redeemed his people at the cost of his life.This passage reveals the deep unity of Scripture: the law, the prophets, the promises to Abraham, and the outpouring of the Spirit all converge at the cross. Justification by faith stands or falls with Christ's substitutionary atonement. If Christ did not truly bear our curse, then there is no gospel at all.Paul's message leaves us with a searching question: Does the cross of Christ shape everything about how we think, believe, and live? For Paul, the answer was decisive—“I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.”"

Galatians 3:26-2926 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

“The Prisoner, the Pedagogue, and the Promise” - a lesson about the purpose of the Law: to expose and restrain sin for a time, not to save sinners, so that it would drive us to Christ alone for justification and freedom through faith. Music: “Come, Thou Savior of Our Race” Lyrics by Martin Luther. Performed by “Crimson Covenant.” Copyright ©TobyLogsdon, 2026

In Galatians 3:10–12, the Apostle Paul brings his argument for justification by faith to a decisive conclusion. After appealing to the testimony of the Triune God (Christ crucified, the Father giving the Spirit, the Spirit working powerfully) and to the promises made to Abraham, Paul now shows why the law can never justify—because it can only pronounce a curse on sinners.Paul's reasoning is careful and often misunderstood. On the one hand, he decisively rejects legalism: any attempt to be justified by works of the law places a person under God's curse, since the law demands nothing less than perfect obedience. Quoting Deuteronomy 27:26, Paul reminds us that failure at even one point brings condemnation. This leaves every sinner without hope if justification depends on law-keeping.On the other hand, Paul is not promoting antinomianism. He is not denying the goodness of God's law or the necessity of obedience in the Christian life. Rather, he is distinguishing between the ground of justification and the fruit of justification. Obedience does not earn righteousness, but true righteousness by faith always produces obedience.To establish this, Paul appeals to Habakkuk 2:4: “The righteous shall live by faith.” In its original context, this declaration came in the face of impending judgment. Those who would survive God's wrath would do so not by flawless obedience, but by trusting in the Lord and His provision of atonement. Paul rightly draws out the abiding principle: escape from judgment—both temporal and final—comes only through faith.Paul then contrasts two fundamentally opposed systems: justification by works and justification by faith. The first rests on human effort and ends in curse; the second rests on Christ's righteousness and ends in life. When Paul says, “the law is not of faith,” he is not rejecting Moses or the Mosaic covenant as legalistic. Instead, he insists that Moses himself taught that perfect obedience is required by the law—and therefore that sinners must seek salvation outside themselves, in God's promised Redeemer.The result is a unified biblical message: Moses and Paul agree. Scripture from beginning to end teaches that justification is by grace through faith alone, and that obedience flows from a heart transformed by that grace.This passage confronts every hearer with a searching question:Will you stand before God on the basis of your own obedience—or will you take refuge in Christ alone? The righteous, Paul declares, shall live by faith.

Daily Dose of Hope January 7, 2026   Scripture: Galatians 3   Prayer:  Lord Jesus, We belong to you!  How often we forget that.  We become selfish and consumed with the things of this world.  We don't spend enough time with you and so we drift.  Lord, please forgive us.  Help us not to be self-consumed and disobedient.  We want to know you more.  In fact, we yearn for your presence in our lives.  How we need you!  Jesus, as we enter into our devotional time, we ask for you to speak to us in a new way today.  We yearn to hear your voice.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast the goes along with the daily Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida.  We have started on a journey through the letters of Paul.  We are starting with what scholars believe is Paul's very first pastoral letter to his churches – Galatians.   Today, we are walking through Galatians 3.  We've talked about how Paul is expressing disappointment that the Galatians have so quickly believed the false teaching that one must become a Jew before they become a Christ-follower.  The Galatians, swayed by Jewish Christians, have begun to drift away from the Gospel that Paul preached to them.  Paul was clear – we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.  Adding elements of the law, such as circumcision, is simply wrong.  The Gospel of Jesus needs nothing added to it or subtracted from it.  To do so is to corrupt the Gospel.   In today's passage, Paul speaks of the law being our guardian until Jesus arrived.  The promise was given to Abraham but the people needed more boundaries so God gave them the law through Moses.  But with Jesus, we can be justified by faith.  Paul is pointing out that we no longer live "under the law" but are "in Christ" despite our inability to keep the law.  We are no longer condemned by God because of our sin.  Rather, because we now live in Christ, God is our father. Because of the forgiveness and salvation that we have in Christ, we don't have to approach God with fear of punishment, but rather we know that God loves us. We are his sons and daughters and we have the privileges that children have with their father. This isn't because of anything we've done but because of what Jesus Christ has done for us.   In verse 27, Paul writes that those who have been baptized into Christ are now clothed in Jesus.  What does that mean?  Well, baptism is a visible sign of the union we have with Jesus.  Our salvation is NOT dependent on baptism (remember Paul is making a point that salvation is by faith alone and nothing else).  But baptism is an outward and visible sign of what Christ has done within us.  Through the inward faith in Christ, we are now sons and daughters of God.  Belief in Jesus is the great equalizer.  As sons and daughters of God, we not only belong to God but we also belong to one another.    Thus, we are brothers and sisters and there is no distinction of race, rank, or sex.  Paul says that whether we are Greek, Jew, male, female, slave, or free, we are all one in Jesus.  You could add any variable to this list.  We are equal in the eyes of Jesus and thus, we should be equal in the eyes of one another.  Over thousands of years, this is a doctrine that has been twisted and or ignored. Forgive us, Lord.  We are all equal and we belong to one another.  Period.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki

"What does Abraham have to do with justification by faith—and with the salvation of the nations?In Galatians 3:6–9, Paul turns from the Galatians' experience of the Spirit to an even more foundational authority: the testimony of Scripture itself. After showing that the Triune God bore witness to justification by faith (Christ crucified, the Father giving the Spirit, the Spirit working powerfully), Paul demonstrates that this gospel is not new. It is the consistent message of God from the beginning—already preached in the Abrahamic promises.Paul begins where Moses begins: “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness” (Genesis 15:6). Abraham was not justified by works, lineage, or law-keeping. He received righteousness as a gift—counted to him by faith. And from that truth Paul draws a decisive conclusion: those who are “of faith” are the true sons of Abraham.That would have landed with force in Galatia. The Judaizers boasted in physical descent and circumcision, but Paul says sonship is determined by faith, not flesh. Believing Gentiles are not second-class citizens in God's kingdom; they are the very fulfillment of what Scripture promised all along.Paul then goes further: Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith and preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham—“In you shall all the nations be blessed.” This promise is not an obscure detail. It is the backbone of the Abrahamic narrative and God's answer to the curse that fell upon the nations. The blessing promised to the nations is inseparable from justification, because blessing and curse correspond to justification and condemnation.The result is Paul's climactic statement: “So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.” We are living in the days Moses longed to see—the worldwide blessing promised to Abraham, fulfilled in Christ, and received by faith alone.The question for every hearer is therefore simple and searching: Are you a true son or daughter of Abraham? Are you walking in the footsteps of Abraham's faith—resting in the righteousness God gives freely in Christ?If you found this sermon helpful, consider subscribing and sharing.For more teaching through Galatians and the doctrine of justification by faith alone, explore the channel's sermon playlist.#Galatians #JustificationByFaith #Abraham #Gospel #ReformedTheology #SolaFide #BibleTeaching #ChristianSermon #NewTestament #BiblicalTheology #CovenantTheology #JesusChrist #GraceAlone #ScriptureAlone #ProtestantReformation"

"How do we know that justification is truly by faith alone?Paul's answer in Galatians 3 is striking: the Holy Spirit Himself bears witness to it.In this sermon, we examine Paul's argument in Galatians 3:1–6 and see how the doctrine of justification by faith is confirmed by the testimony of the Triune God. Paul does not appeal first to church authority or human reasoning, but to what God Himself has done—through Christ crucified, the giving of the Spirit, suffering for the gospel, and even signs and wonders.Paul reminds the Galatians that Christ was proclaimed to them as crucified through the preaching of the Word, and that the Spirit was given to them not by works of the law, but by the hearing of faith. The same Spirit who began the Christian life must also be the one who perfects it. To turn back to works is not progress—it is regression.This passage also teaches us how justification and sanctification are inseparably connected. Having begun by the Spirit, we are not perfected by the flesh. Growth in holiness comes through faith, union with Christ, and diligent use of the means of grace—not through self-reliant striving.Paul's argument reaches its climax by pointing to the Spirit's miraculous work among the Galatians as God's own confirmation of the gospel they received. To reject justification by faith is therefore not merely to reject a doctrine, but to resist the testimony of God Himself.This sermon calls us to hear the witness of the Father who gives the Spirit, the Son who was crucified for sinners, and the Spirit who confirms the truth of the gospel—so that we might stand firm in justification by faith alone."
