  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. ...... 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.
  ...... But the Scripture declares that the whole
  world is a prisoner of sin, so that what was
  promised, being given through faith in Jesus
  Christ, might be given to those who believe.
