Galatians 3:27-29 King James Version (KJV)
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
28 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.
29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Galatians 3:27-29 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)
27 because as many of you as were immersed into the Messiah have clothed yourselves with the Messiah, in whom 28 there is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor freeman, neither male nor female; for in union with the Messiah Yeshua, you are all one. 29 Also, if you belong to the Messiah, you are seed of Avraham and heirs according to the promise.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
27 This talking about coming to the faith which is shown by baptism but more likely Paul is referring to the baptism of the Holy Spirit which happens to every believer when we come to faith and make Jesus our Lord; this means we have been given the Spirit.
28 This was not saying that there no longer was Jews or Greeks but he is saying that Jesus died for both the same and the no one is more prone to receive Jesus because of who they are. Bond or free this is a new idea saying that slaves are as important to the Lord as those that are free. Male or female this is not saying that there is no gender because of Christ because this is not true, God made the different genders, this is saying that women are able to come to faith just as much as the men are. What may have been taught at this church at this time was that you had to become a free Jewish man to receive Christ as your Savior which is what Paul is teaching against.
29 We are made seeds of Abraham by Christ this does not make us Jewish but thru Christ we are able to receive His promises given to them.
