Galatians 3:16-18
New Century Version
16 God made promises both to Abraham and to his descendant. God did not say, “and to your descendants.” That would mean many people.

The law, which came four hundred thirty years later, cannot change that agreement and so destroy God’s promise to Abraham. 18 If the law could give us Abraham’s blessing, then the promise would not be necessary. But that is not possible, because God freely gave his blessings to Abraham through the promise he had made.
