48:003:006 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for
           righteousness.

48:003:007 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are
           the children of Abraham.

48:003:008 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the
           heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto
           Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

48:003:009 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful
           Abraham.

48:003:010 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the
           curse:  for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth
           not in all things which are written in the book of the law to
           do them.

48:003:011 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God,
           it is evident:  for, The just shall live by faith.

48:003:012 And the law is not of faith:  but, The man that doeth them
           shall live in them.

48:003:013 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made
           a curse for us:  for it is written, Cursed is every one that
           hangeth on a tree: 

48:003:014 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles
           through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the
           Spirit through faith.

48:003:015 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a
           man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth,
           or addeth thereto.

48:003:016 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.  He saith
           not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed,
           which is Christ.

48:003:017 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before
           of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty
           years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise
           of none effect.

48:003:018 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of
           promise:  but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

48:003:019 Wherefore then serveth the law?  It was added because of
           transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise
           was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a
           mediator.

48:003:020 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

48:003:021 Is the law then against the promises of God?  God forbid:  for
           if there had been a law given which could have given life,
           verily righteousness should have been by the law.

48:003:022 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the
           promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that
           believe.
