Understanding Our Inheritance: The Two Covenants of Galatians 4

In the life of every believer, there is a fundamental question that must be answered: Are you living by your own effort, or by the power of God’s promise? In the Apostle Paul’s masterful exposition in Galatians 4:21-31, he takes us back to the book of Genesis to settle this question once and for all. By contrasting the lives of Hagar and Sarah, Paul reveals the radical difference between a life of religious bondage and a life of spiritual freedom.

The Flesh vs. The Promise

The narrative of Abraham’s two sons, Ishmael and Isaac, is more than ancient history—it is a spiritual blueprint.

  • The Way of the Flesh: Represented by Hagar and Ishmael, this path relies on human “conniving” and effort to achieve God’s approval. It is the path of the Law, given at Mount Sinai, which leads only to bondage.
  • The Way of the Spirit: Represented by Sarah and Isaac, this path relies on a supernatural miracle. Isaac was born not because Abraham was strong, but because God was faithful to His Promise.

As children of the “Jerusalem above,” believers today are not under the thumb of legalistic rules. We are heirs to a kingdom, born of the Spirit, and justified by faith in the singular Seed: Jesus Christ.

Breaking Free from the Mosaic Law! | Galatians 4:1-20

Breaking Free: From the Bondage of Law to the Freedom of Sonship

The transition from religious performance to the freedom found in Christ is perhaps the most critical journey a believer can take. In the fourth chapter of Galatians, the Apostle Paul addresses a church in crisis—a people who had tasted the grace of the Gospel but were being lured back into the “weak and worthless” rituals of legalism.

The Heart of the Message: Underage Heirs and Divine Adoption

Paul begins with a powerful cultural illustration. In the ancient world, an heir was legally the owner of the estate from birth, yet functionally lived as a slave under the authority of guardians until a date set by the father.

This, Paul explains, was the purpose of the Mosaic Law. It was a temporary tutor—a disciplinarian intended to guide the people until the “fullness of time” when God sent His Son. Christ, born under the Law, fulfilled every jot and tittle of its requirements so that we might be redeemed and receive the “adoption as sons.”

Moving Beyond Rituals

The danger for the Galatians—and for many today—is the tendency to return to a “performance metric” for holiness. Paul’s concern was deeply personal. Having seen the Galatians embrace him and the Gospel with such fervor, he was perplexed to find them observing days, months, and seasons as if these rituals could add anything to the finished work of Christ.

The goal of the Christian life is not the perfection of religious behavior, but the formation of Christ within the believer. This is a settled maturity that recognizes Jesus alone as the source of perfect righteousness.

Why Did God Give the Law? (Galatians 3:15-29)

2 weeks ago

Get the notes here!

One of the most frequent questions in the Christian walk is: “If we are saved by grace, why did God give the Law in the first place?”

Many believers feel a tension between the Old Testament Commandments and the New Testament Promise. In this latest teaching, we tackle this head-on, walking through the Apostle Paul’s brilliant legal defense of our freedom in Christ.

Understanding the Transition from Law to Promise

In Galatians 3:15–29, Paul explains that the Law was never a plan for salvation. Instead, it was a temporary measure—a “tutor” or “nanny”—designed to guard and discipline until the Messiah arrived.

Key highlights from this study include:

  • The Immutable Promise: Why the covenant God made with Abraham is a “signed contract” that cannot be changed by the Law.
  • The Role of the Tutor: How the Law serves as a mirror to reveal our need for a Savior.
  • Clothed in Christ: The powerful reality that when we put our faith in Jesus, God no longer sees our sin or our social distinctions; He sees His Son.
  • Your Inheritance: How we become legal heirs to every promise made to Abraham by being united with the “Seed,” which is Jesus.

Breaking the Curse: Faith Over Law | Galatians 3 Explained! (Galatians 3:1-14)

3 weeks ago

Get the notes for this teaching!

The Deception of Legalism: Why the System of Performance Fails

The journey of faith begins with a profound encounter with the Holy Spirit, yet many believers find themselves “bewitched” into a system of performance. In our latest teaching on Galatians 3:1-14, we confront the spiritual crisis that faced the early church—and continues to challenge us today: the attempt to perfect in the flesh what was initiated by the Spirit.

The Logic of the Gospel

The Apostle Paul’s message to the Galatians is an indictment of “foolishness”—not a lack of intelligence, but a failure to apply the logic of the Gospel. If salvation is a gift received through the “hearing of faith,” it is impossible to maintain or mature that salvation through the “works of the Law.”

The teaching explores three critical pillars of our standing before God:

  • The Witness of Experience: Recalling the moment you received the Spirit and the miracles that followed, which happened entirely apart from your adherence to a checklist.
  • The Precedent of Abraham: Understanding that the father of our faith was justified by belief centuries before the Law of Moses ever existed.
  • The Great Exchange: Confronting the reality that the Law is a system of a curse for those who fail its standard of perfection. Christ became that curse for us, hanging on a tree to unlock the blessing of the Spirit.

Now Available: The Galatians 3 Curriculum Bundle

To help you, your small group, or your congregation go deeper into these truths, we have packaged this entire teaching into a professional, comprehensive study suite. This digital bundle is designed to move learners from the confusion of legalism into the clarity of Christ’s finished work.

What’s Inside the Package:

  • Theological Mastery Quiz: A 10-question assessment with a detailed “Rationale Sheet” explaining the scriptural “why” behind every answer.
  • Redemption Framework: A clear study of the transition from the “Curse of the Law” to the “Blessing of the Spirit.”

Paul vs. Peter: The Most Important Confrontation in the Early Church (Galatians 2:11-21)

4 weeks ago

Be sure to get the complete notes for this teaching!

Defending the Gospel: The Truth of Justification

The purity of the Gospel is never more than one generation—or one compromise—away from being lost. In our latest teaching, we delve into the high-stakes confrontation between the Apostle Paul and the Apostle Peter in Antioch. This pivotal moment in church history serves as a timeless reminder that even the most respected leaders can fall into the trap of people-pleasing and legalism.

When Peter withdrew from fellowship with Gentile believers to appease a specific religious group, he wasn’t just making a social faux pas; he was undermining the very foundation of salvation by grace. Paul’s public rebuke of Peter wasn’t about personal ego—it was about protecting the “Great Exchange”: our sin for Christ’s righteousness.

Key Insights from Galatians 2:11–21:

  • The Danger of Hypocrisy: How the “fear of man” leads to religious segregation and influences others, including leaders like Barnabas, to compromise the truth.
  • Justification vs. Performance: A deep dive into the judicial reality that no one is declared righteous by “works of law,” but only through faith in Jesus Christ.
  • The Crucified Life: Understanding what it means to die to the law’s condemnation so that we may live for God through a unique union with the Savior.

Master the Message: The Complete Teaching Package

To help you go deeper into these truths, we have prepared a professional-grade study resource. Whether you are a pastor, a small group leader, or a student of the Word, this package provides the tools you need to articulate the doctrine of grace with clarity and conviction.

What’s inside the digital download:

  • Comprehensive Study Outline: A verse-by-verse breakdown of Paul’s defense of the Gospel.
  • Teacher & Student Guides: Ready-to-use materials designed for classroom or personal discipleship.
  • Interactive Mastery Quiz: A 10-question assessment with a complete answer key and theological rationale to ensure core concepts are mastered.
  • Focus Terms & Deep Dives: Detailed explorations of Justification by Faith, The Crucified Life, and Gospel Purity.

Don’t let the simplicity of the Gospel be clouded by human tradition or performance. Reclaim the power of the cross and learn to live a life motivated not by rules, but by the love of the Son of God.
