Paul takes us through a comparison of legalism and faith using the example of the two sons of Abraham, Ishmael born a slave and Isaac born free.

We find some leadership principles from the heart Paul had for his congregation in Galatia.

Because we have been set free, God does not want us to return to our previous slaveries. Stand firm in His grace and relish His love!

Jesus transitions us from slaves of sin into sons of God. We know this because of His Spirit in our hearts.

We have a new identity now in Jesus Christ. We are sons of God and all equal in the eyes of God our Father.

God wrote the Law with a purpose: to show us our sin and its cost AND to show us our need for a Savior.

God is pleased to bless the believer most precisely and dramatically through the gift of Himself rather than any other gift He gives. God uses Jesus, His death and resurrection, to bless all who trust in Him.

Those who rely on the Law for earning righteousness are under the curse of God. Instead, the righteous live by faith in what Jesus has done for them.

Our attention moves from salvation-by-faith to now maturity-by-faith. Works do not get the believer anywhere, but the person that trusts in God matures by seeking His work in their heart.

We no live for ourselves, but for Jesus. This life of faith centers in surrendering to the will of God rather than serving our own desires.
