BIBLE STUDY WITH ME | Galatians 4

Welcome back to our Galatians #BibleStudyWithMe series! Today we are studying #Galatians chapter 4. 💛
In this chapter, Paul continues his argument to the Galatians for justification by faith in Jesus Christ alone - and he spends a good chunk of the passage giving an allegory to help illuminate this truth. To be honest, I never really understood this part of the passage before - it always seemed like a randomly placed story and I didn't understand the connection. But nothing about Scripture is random! In studying Galatians 4 more in depth than I had before, I learned the meaning of this allegory Paul gives, and it is crazy cool. 🤯I'll be breaking it down in this #BibleVideo and as always, going through the chapter verse by verse.
I can't believe we're over halfway through this series already! Next week in chapter 5 we will begin to talk more about sanctification (the process by which God is continually shaping us more and more into His image) and living by the Spirit. It's going to be good. 🤗
Let me know what you learned from studying Galatians chapter 4, and what verse stood out to you most (and why) down in the comments. ✨

Wasn’t that such a cool allegory?! 🤯 what did you learn from this chapter? What verse stood out to you most?

Im a 68 year old newly baptized and saved. I have been hosting a Bible study (I’m the student, the rest are well read) of men how I refer to as Hebraic Christians as they keep the feasts and festivals and adhere to the dietary restrictions. I was struggling and praying about this until we started Galatians and now I hear Paul telling me I don’t have to do that.

I’m doing a bible study in Colossians with 2 of my best friends and a lady from church who is our high school pastor’s wife, and she has been teaching us how to read and study the Bible, and I’m learning so much! I’ve learned a lot of practical ways to read and study the Bible, and normally I would have just read through a passage and underlined verses that I liked, but now I have a better understanding of passages and contexts. It’s really encouraging to watch videos like these and to have people come along side me and help me in my walk with the Lord!

Kaci I love your heart but I fear that you have missed the point of this chapter. Paul is calling the Galatians to give up the religious and legal systems set up by man and return to the instructions of God. He is saying don't try and reinvent the wheel God has already invented the best wheel. The question is once we are saved by grace how are we supposed to live? Do we go find the local teacher who tickles our ears and tells us to celebrate days and seasons and years chosen by man or do we follow the spirit and celebrate the days and seasons and years chosen by God. There is a lie in the church that says parts of the law have passed away this is in direct conflict with the words of Jesus who says that all of the Law will remain until the heavens and the earth pass away (which happens in Revelation 21) He also says that those who do great works for him but abandon the law will be cast into hell in Matthew 7. The Apostle John says that sin is the transgression of the law. So the question is does any New Testament book tell us that it is alright to sin? Even in Galatians Paul tells us to avoid our sinful desires or we wont enter the kingdom of heaven. So the questions is remains does Paul disagree with Jesus or are we misunderstanding Paul. Once again keep digging deeper into the truth. As we face the end times we need men and women to stand up for God.

Good study. When I read this chapter I am also struck by the very startling implications of Paul's words. He says that Jews who are not in Christ are NOT heirs of the promise. They are essentially Ishmaelites. This has various ramifications for one's view on Israel, especially if you think they are still heirs of any promises.

Could you slow down a bit, you talk way too fast for me to keep up. Are you signing also, while you’re going through the lesson? That is very talented. I always wanted to learn sign Language

[@hayleighkuz]

Thank you SO MUCH for this! You’re so beautiful! 💖 You’re always so helpful and informative, and I would probably be lost without this series! 😊

[@Zz-lm1no]

:) amazing video ( as always) today, I’m inspired! What stuck out to me is that this world practices “ you get what you deserve” but when we become followers of Christ we no longer are under the law of the world, but are adopted by God! Thank you! ❤️

[@margielustyk8599]

Just ran across this study. It was GREAT! i see it's 4 yrs old. But keep up the great work!

[@kenleeburton3843]

I’ve never been able to really understand Galatians so this was super helpful to me, thanks!

[@oliviaprins1505]

I have been away from my daily reading for too long. These past Galations series have been helping me stay on track with my reading. Thank you!!

[@pharmabae878]

Absolute life saver, the holy spirit placed this chapter in my heart to read but i didnt understand it or how it related to the situation i am going through but your explanation has really brought this to life! thank you so much God bless you

[@tressaprichard4736]

Living by faith is living by God’s promise ❤

[@jingwang6575]

The promise comes from God which is also fulfilled by God. thank you for sharing

[@jamieandfamily729]

I truely am enjoying these. I am redirecting my self back to God. Finding my faith again after 18 years if being a Wiccan. I didnt know where to start or how to start i dont even own a bible ( yet). Im getting there. Oddly your videos popped up out of no where on my feed so i decided to skim trhu and found that i enjoy your content. So i prayed for guidance as to where to start and how, and Galatians was recomended. It is strange because Peter went his own way, (if i am correct for a few year right?) And then came back to God. I may not be saying that right, i dont know. But i see myself in him. I was ( i wont say lost) but on a different path. ( of the flesh) i guess you could say. Now im back and ready to fully study, understand , and when the timing is right give my life back to the Lord. (Baptized) Anyways thank you for these videos.

[@kristencrotinger9182]

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. My ladies Bible study is working on Galatians… just wrapped up this weeks lesson and wanted to seek out some additional teaching or commentary. So glad I stumbled upon this video. ❤️ Keep up building up His Kingdom, sis!

[@jeffreyco7800]
