Freedom Through Faith | Ep. 80


Listen Later

Have you ever felt like your faith has become a checklist of dos and don'ts rather than a relationship with Christ? Episode 80 of the Woman 31 Podcast tackles this fundamental struggle head-on as we continue our journey through Galatians, focusing on chapters 3 and 4 where Paul confronts the dangerous infiltration of works-based religion.

At the heart of this episode is a profound contrast that still resonates today: the suffocating bondage of religious legalism versus the liberating freedom of grace through faith. I unpack Paul's passionate rebuke to the Galatians who were being deceived by false teachers insisting that grace alone wasn't enough—they needed circumcision and law-keeping to truly belong to God. Sound familiar? We still struggle with measuring our spiritual worth through religious performance rather than resting in Christ's finished work.

The beautiful truth we discover is that Abraham—the father of faith—was justified long before the Mosaic Law existed, showing God's consistent plan to save people through faith, not works. I share how the allegory of Sarah and Hagar brilliantly illustrates our choice between living by human effort or divine promise.
