Galatians 3:1-9
Faith and Belief
1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
1:
2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
2:
3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
3:
4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if [it be] yet in vain.
4:
5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
5:
6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
6:
7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
7:
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.
8:
9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
