First Reading: Galatians 3:22-29

²² But the scripture consigned all things to sin, that what was promised to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
²³ Now before faith came, we were confined under the law, kept under restraint until faith should be revealed.
²⁴ So that the law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith.
²⁵ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian;
²⁶ for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.
²⁷ For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
²⁸ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
²⁹ And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise.
