Galatians 3:18-20

International Children’s Bible

¹⁸ Can following the law give us what God promised? No! If this is so, it is not God’s promise that brings us the blessings. Instead God freely gave his blessings to Abraham through the promise he had made.

¹⁹ So what was the law for? The law was given to show the wrong things people do. It continued until the special descendant of Abraham came. God’s promise was about this descendant. The law was given through angels who used Moses for a mediator^[a] to give the law to men. ²⁰ But a mediator is not needed when there is only one side. And God is only one.
