In this continuation of our study in Galatians, we move from chapter 3:20 through the end of the chapter, and then into Galatians 4:1–4. This portion of Scripture brings us to the heart of the gospel—what it truly means to be God’s children by faith.
Paul contrasts life under bondage with life as sons and heirs, helping us understand the role of the law, tutors, and governors, and why they were never meant to be permanent. We explore how salvation in Christ is not limited by age, race, nationality, gender, or social standing, but is freely available to all who believe.
This study highlights:
Sonship with God through faith alone
The meaning of being under tutors and governors
The transition from bondage to inheritance
God’s purpose in sending His Son “in the fullness of time”
The radical inclusiveness of the gospel
If you’ve ever struggled with legalism, identity in Christ, or what it means to live as a true child of God, this study will bring clarity and encouragement.
