1 Chronicles 24-27 contain lists of those who serve the house of God as well as those who serve David in other ways.

In Galatians 3 Paul addresses the fact that the Galatians have fallen into the believe that Gentile must follow the law. He says that Christ redeems us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. The promised covenant with Abraham for both Jews and Gentiles came 400+ years before the law was ever written. How can the law nullify the promise? The law was our disciplinarian until Christ came. Now we clothe ourselves with Christ at baptism and are heirs of the promise.

So often we want to make our salvation (justification) about keeping the rules…about being good enough. Our salvation is not about us it is about Jesus and what he did for us. He is the one who paid the price. We belong to him. He deserves all the credit and all our gratitude.
