Two thousand years later, the historically marked tomb is still empty. Since that time, billions of Christians have been buried in tombs, ashes scattered, devoured by enemies, and left to the ravages of the natural world. In the Christian grave site is but the dust of a worn-out tabernacle that was once was indwelt by an image of God. The soul and spirit that were really the image of God had been angel transported to the throne of God as the body drifted into what the world calls death. There is a day in the future, known only to the Trinity, that human dust will respond to heaven's trumpet sound and loud cry and in the twinkling of an eye an eternal body will form. Being drawn to Jesus and being reunited with the original soul and spirit that has been with God. Then, we will live eternally with the Lord. The open tomb of Jesus, our guarantee that our tomb will one day be empty.

Pastor Herb Pinney preaching Galatians 4:1-7, "For Nothing Is Impossible With God." "But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under law, to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of sons. Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Father.' So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir" (Galatians 4:4-7).

Pastor Herb Pinney preaching Galatians 3:15-18, Brothers, let me take an example from everyday life. Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case. The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say "and to seeds," meaning many people, but "and to your seed," meaning one person, who is Christ. What I mean is this: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise.

This morning, Teaching Pastor Herb Pinney is preaching Galatians 3:10-14. All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law." Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because, "The righteous will live by faith." The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, "The man who does these things will live by them." Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree." He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
