Christ [Anointed One] redeemed
[paid to recover] us from the
curse of the law [customs,
commands] by becoming a curse for us — for it is written, “Cursed is
everyone who hangs on a tree
[wood]” — {14} in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham
[founder of the Hebrew nation] might come to the Gentiles
[non-Hebrews], so that we
might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith
[belief].
New Revised Standard Version
_________________________________________
God kept His promise to Abraham — He has not
revoked it. He saved Abraham
through his faith, and He blessed the world through Abraham by sending
the Messiah as one of Abraham’s descendants.
Circumstances may change, but God remains constant and does not
break His promises. God has
promised to forgive our sins through Jesus Christ, and we can be sure
that He will do so. Praise God!
