Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.
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 pole.”
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.
God accepted Abraham's sons and heirs - because they share his faith. God accepted centuries before the law was given through Moses. SO how can the law win people free pardon?
Why?
We received the grace and salvation through faith and by faith and grown in faith.
All of the Christian is an heir of Abraham by faith. Before the law was given, Abraham was righteous for the faith to God.
So Gentile could be free from sins is through faith.

得著福音是因為信。
亞伯拉罕因為信所以神算他為義。亞伯拉罕不是因為行律法，算為他的義，而是因為信。所以以信為本的，就是亞伯拉罕的子孫。
萬國要因你得福，就是因為信，沒有血緣的關係。保羅強調血統上不見得是亞伯拉罕的子孫。
行律法只有零分和一百分。只有聖潔和不聖潔。人要如何從被咒詛 ，只有透過耶穌基督，得到亞伯拉罕的福。外邦人也因信耶穌基督而得到應許的聖靈。
我們只能說不斷的感恩，存感恩的心，回報基督。
