Galatians 4:21-31
6 arguments against legalism from Galatians so far…
- Freedom argument (The law stifles us, chains us, condemns us. Grace brings freedom)
- Curse Argument (the law is a burden for all, Christ became a curse)
- Historical Argument (Abraham justified by faith)
- Sonship Argument (we are children of God through faith in Christ, not works of the law)
- Immaturity Argument (only an infant wants what will truly be harmful to them – Grow up)
- Heirs Argument (we will be inheriters of the kingdom of god, but we must be mature enough to receive it)
To the Legalists (vs 21-25)
James 2:10
Legalism can never produce true godliness.
2nd Corinthians 3:4-6
There is a difference between God’s will and God’s timing
God is bigger than your failures
God doesn’t need your help.
The decisions we make affect generations
