Hello beej,

You quoted Galatians 3:29, please look at [v.28] that comes before it:

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

There is no ethnic, social or sexual distinciton. Abraham was an example of faith. Please read Hebrews chapter 11. There is no ethnic distincition, faith is what is being stressed.

Galatians 2:6-9:

Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness, Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. And the scripture, forseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

There had to be certain criteria for Jesus, so that prophecy would be fufilled, and just because Jesus came from the Tribe of Judah doesn't make us Jews.
