We were saved by grace through faith. This is not of works but a gift from God. We need to have a working knowledge of our salvation. If we don’t have knowledge of our salvation, we won’t know the benefits of it. It is important to know what we’ve been saved from by receiving salvation.

To summarize, Galatians chapter 3 emphasizes the inadequacy of the law in providing salvation and righteousness for all. The law was given to reveal and define sin, making us aware of our sinful nature and our need for redemption.

Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, we are set free from the power of sin, we received grace, became slaves of righteousness, and are led by the Spirit of God.
