Galatians 3:23-29
23 Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. 24 So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. 25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. 27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

Watch the Sermon
Summary: In our passage this week, we see that though the law condemns sinners to judgment, the promise of God offers justification and forgiveness through faith in Jesus, the Messiah. This is the heart of the Christian faith, how through Jesus we become sons and daughters of God, and though different from one another, in Christ we become one with other Christians. And together, we long for the inheritance to come to the children of God.
