If the people of the law are heirs, what happens to faith?

If those who are of the law are heirs, then faith is made void and cancelled. The law cannot be the basis of inheritance, because righteousness comes through faith. Law and faith are mutually exclusive in this regard; if law keeping makes one an heir, faith has no place.

Les teaches that verse 14 says if they who are of the law be heirs—just the children of Israel through their law keeping—then faith is made void. He explains this means faith is cancelled. The law came 500 years after Abraham, was severe, a burden, a yoke of bondage Israel couldn't bear. But inheritance didn't come through the law; it came through the righteousness of faith. Galatians clarifies that believers are not under law but under grace, and the bondwoman Hagar and Ishmael stood for law and flesh, while Isaac stood for grace and freedom. The two cannot be heirs together.

Romans 4:14

For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

What happens to faith if those who are of the law are the heirs?

Faith is made void and canceled when those who are of the law are counted as heirs. Heirship would then rest on law-keeping rather than the righteousness of faith, and the promise would not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith.
