Gal 4:22-26 speaks of Abraham and the bondwoman in past tense and then switches to present tense and explains that he is is using an allegory: “For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.”

Church fathers viewed Eve as a “type” of the church- “Eve from the side of the sleeping one, the church from the side of the suffering one” -Augustine. Paul uses childbirth as a metaphor for the formation of Christ within (Gal 4:19).

Could Paul be saying?:
Eve (church/you and I whether male or female) having been deceived, into transgression came, and she (you and I whether male or female) will be saved through the child-bearing (the formation of Christ within) if they remain in faith, and love, and sanctification, with sobriety. (Read “they” as the union with the second Adam, so if Eve/church/you and I remain united with CHRIST “in faith, and love…”, she/Eve/church/you and I will be SAVED)
