Galatians 3:27-29 (NASB Strong’s (Lockman))
27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise.
When we put on Christ, we shed the trappings of natural man for the image of God. We are no longer what we were, but are transformed as a new creation in Christ. We begin a journey of sanctification where we lay hold of the blessings of our inheritance.
Christ is the son of promise, that is the promised son. If we are in Christ, we share in that promise because we are like Him, the seed of Abraham.
