dberrie---Galatians3:7-9--"Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
8And 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.
9So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham."
What gospel was this? If it were not the gospel of Christ--was it the gospel at all?
Why did it involve faith? What gospel involves faith being counted as righteousness:
Genesis15:6--"And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness."
Galatians3:18-19--"For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
19Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator."
Could you explain for us what the Mosaic law was added to because of transgressions?
