Sinai and Zion - Part 4

Galatians 4 Brother Sam continues his exposé on the book of Galatians in the series. From verses 1–8, he shows the necessity of the law to show the exceeding sinfulness of man. And the law, though binding on Israel, could not annul the covenant with Abraham that has already been set - justification by faith He also explains that the heart cry of the Christian “abba father” is an inner experience every Christian has that can’t be proven and in which they all know they are children of God. Why? For Christianity is not just a superior idea that’s simply better for the outworking of a society BUT an encounter and relationship with the Godhead. Verses 8-20. He explains that paul shows the effect of people who want to make the Galatians (by extension us) zealous for the law. But zeal misapplied is meaningless and fruitless in the sight of God. A zeal for legalism is not pleasing to God. Verses 21-31. Brother Sam shows us that we are children of the free woman and not the slave. For Zion is our home. We are children of faith and of Sarah whose conception of Isaac was of the promise. We hope the continuation of this series greatly blesses you
