Galatians 04:08-31 Our Freedom in Christ

In this study:

  • In what sense were the Galatians previously enslaved by demons?
  • How did Paul compare their previous enslavement to Jewish legalism?
  • Why was their attraction to legalism so ironic?
  • Why was Paul not being boastful when he told them to “become like I am?”
  • What did he mean when he said that he “became like you are?”
  • How does legalism appeal to spiritual pride?
  • Did Moses teach legalism in the Old Testament?
  • What are some of the speculations about Paul’s infirmity?
  • How does the account of Abraham, Sarah, Hagar, Ishmael, and Isaac relate to the dangers of legalism?
  • What is the problem with the self-perceived freedom of legalists?

Stay in the battle!
