On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

No external privileges nor profession will avail to our acceptance with God, without a sincere faith in our Lord Jesus. Faith, where it is true, is a working grace: it works by love, love to God and love to our brethren; and faith, thus working by love, is all in all in our Christianity.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Thus in Ga 5:5, 6, we have the three, "faith," "hope," and "love." The Greek expresses, "Which effectually worketh"; which exhibits its energy by love (so 1Th 2:13). Love is not joined with faith in justifying, but is the principle of the works which follow after justification by faith.
