Galatians

Out from Faith verses out from Law

Galatians 4:12-31

4.12 You become as I am, because I also am as you, brethren, I urge you. You have done me no unrighteousness. 4.13 Indeed you intuitively know that through weakness in the flesh I first brought you the good news. 4.14 And my test, the one in my body, you did not despise nor reject, but as a messenger from God you received me, as Christ Jesus. 4.15 Therefore where is your happiness? For you testify concerning me that if, assuming it were true, you had the natural ability you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 4.16 So have I, the one telling you the truth, become your enemy? 4.17 They are zealous to you, not properly, but they desire to exclude you in order that your zeal should be to them. 4.18 And it is proper to be zealous always in doing well, and not only in my presences facing you. 4.19 My children, who again I labor in birth until which Christ is metamorphosized in you. 4.20 But I wish to be present facing you now, and to change my voice, because I am at a loss among you. 4.21 Say to me, the ones desiring to be under law, do you not listen to the law? 4.22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one out from maidservant and one out from the free woman. 4.23 But on the one hand the one out from the maidservant was born according to the flesh, on the other hand the one out form the free woman through the promise. 4.24 This […]

Galatians November 18 2018

Placed as Sons

The Placement of Sonship

Under Law Until the Time Appointed by the Father, Galatians 4:1, 2

Held in bondage to the elementary things of the world system, Galatians 4:3

God Sent His Son to Redeem those under Law, Galatians 4:4-7

Galatians 4:1-7

4.1 But I say upon as much time as the heir is an inarticulate babbler, he differs nothing from a slave, being lord of all, 4.2 but is under guardians and tutors, up until the time limit set by the father. 4.3 Thus we also, when we were inarticulate babblers, we being slaves were under the elementary principles of the world system. 4.4 But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth His Son, being born out from a woman, born under law, 4.5 in order that he should redeem the ones under the law, in order that we should receive the placement of sons. 4.6 And because we are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying “Abba, the Father”. 4.7 Therefore we are no longer slaves but sons, and since sons, also we are heirs of God through Christ.

Galatians November 11 2018

The Purpose of the Law

The Law did not negate the promise

The Purpose of the Law, Galatians 3:19-23

Law Serves as a Child Trainer until Christ, Galatians 3:24-39

Law Does not Allow Maturity, Galatians 4:1

Galatians 3:19 – 4:2

3.19 Therefore, why the Law? It was added in favor of the transgressions, up until which the seed should come, who was promised, having been directed through messengers by the hand of a mediator. 3.20 And the mediator is not of one, but God is one. 3.21 Therefore is the Law against the promise from God? May it never come to be! For if, for the sake of argument, Law has been given the natural ability to make alive, in fact, righteousness would be out from the law. 3.22 But Scripture closed up all under sin, in order that the promise out from faith concerning Jesus Christ should be given to the ones who believe. 3.23 However, before the faith came, we were being guarded under the Law, after being closed up, because of the about to be revealed faith. 3.24 Wherefore, the Law is in a state of having become a child guardian concerning us into Christ, in order that out from faith we should be justified. 3.25 And the faith having come, we are no longer under a child guardian. 3.26 For we are all sons belonging […]
