<p>3:26 <i>For you are all sons of God</i> <i>, through faith in Christ Jesus</i>- The &quot;all&quot; suggests that as Christ is the son of God, so are we. For by being baptized into Christ, all that is true of Him becomes true of us. Entering the body of Christ carries this implication. We must aspire to be united, with neither Jew nor Gentile, male nor female etc., because &quot;ye are all one man in Christ&quot; (Gal. 3:28 RV). We &quot;are all sons of God&quot; (3:26 RV) because of our baptism into the Son of God. And so Paul goes on to reason that just as Christ was &quot;the heir&quot; (cp. &quot;this is the heir&hellip;&quot;), who is &quot;lord of all&quot;, &quot;even so we&hellip;&quot; were kept under the law for a time (Gal. 4:1-3). The basis of our unity is that there is only one Jesus, and by being in Him we are living lives committed to the imitation of that same man. It's painless enough to read Gal. 3:27-29- that all those baptized &quot;in Christ&quot; therefore are in a status where there is neither Jew nor Gentile, no human barriers between us. But this is actually something we have to live out in life in order for it to become reality.</p>
