Its NOT WRONG, but what God is telling us is that we can not attain Life Eternal by keeping the Law, because just one violation f that Moral Code means we are guilty of violating God's Laws, thus we are stained with Sin which means we can not ever, ever, ever enter into the Presence of God in Heaven, thus we can ONLY PLEASE God by trusting in His righteousness, thus He can forgive us that which we have no right to be forgiven for, all because we understand His Loving Tender Mercies are indeed our only saving grace.
Gal. 3:8 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. 9 So then they
which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. 10 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.
11 But that
no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for,
The just shall live by faith.
12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them. 13
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:
14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ;
that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. 15 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.
16 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. 17 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(THE LAW came 430 years AFTER the Promise to Abraham, THE LAW was never the Covenant, THE PROMISE was), that it should
make the promise of none effect. 18 For
if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
19
Wherefore then serveth the law?( What purpose was THE LAW for? ) It was added because of transgressions (Sin), till the seed(Jesus) should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. 21
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.
22 But the scripture hath concluded
all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be
given to them that believe. 23 But
before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24
Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25
But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28
(1)There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
(1) The above simply means that the Galatians should STOP trying to be Justified via the Law of the Jews, in other words Paul was sayin STOP trying to get to Heaven by being like the Jews who kept the Law to obtain thete supposed Righteousness !! Who has Bewitched you that starting out in the Faith you have now moved unto the Flesh (trying to Justify yourselves via WORKS of the Law !! )
Therefore at the very end, Paul is not saying we are ALL ONE and the same, or that the Church has taken the place of the Jews, he is simply telling the Galatians, HEY, you do not have to become Jewish to make it to Heaven, all you have to do is BELIEVE God is your Righteousness, like Abraham did, which happened 430 years BEFORE the Law even came unto the Jews !!
We are all one in Christ by FAITH ALONE, be we Jews or Gentiles, Male or Females, Slaves or Freemen !! You don't have to try to act Jewish my brother Galatians, STOP IT !! We know this is what he meant, there are of course Jews and Gentiles AND
Males and Females, he was making a point, stop trying to be Jewish in order to gain Heaven by keeping their Laws which even they couldn't keep, because NO MAN can keep all of the Laws, we must receive a pardon by God through Faith alone, because of God's Mercy. We are not worthy to gain heaven. Amen.
