  1. Galatians Chapter Four The Allegory of Sarah and Hagar Galatians 4:23But the son by the bondwoman (Ishmael) was born according to the flesh, and the son by the free woman (Isaac) through the promise.

  2. NOAH SHEM EBER TERAH ABRAHAM NAHOR HARAN ISAACISHMAELLOT JACOBESAU ARABS MOAB AMMON EDOMARABS ISRAELITES (Jews)

  3. Genesis 15God makes an unconditional promise to Abraham to provide a son Genesis 16:1-6Man's attempt to fulfill God's promise by his own schemes

  4. Hagar = Mt. Sinai (Law) = Jerusalem (Legalist) THE POINT PAUL MAKES Just as Hagar was on the wrong side of the Abrahamic covenant of promise, so are the Judiazers.

  5. PRINCIPLE Hagar being a slave could only produce a slave and the Legalist are salves and they can only produce slaves Compare Galatians 3:10 For as many are of the works of the Law are under a curse.

  6. Philippians 3:20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; The spiritual descendants of Abraham through Sarah are all who have put faith in Christ Galatians 3:29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

  7. Paul quotes Isaiah 54:1 Exact from MT = LXX = GNT For it is written, rejoice barren woman who does not bear, break forth and shout, you who are not in labor, for more are the children of the desolate than of the one who has a husband. A contradiction to human viewpoint

  8. CAST OUT The imperative verb EXBALLO exballw It means to throw up or out A very strong action word

  9. Summary of the Allegory: 1. As Christians we are children of the promise and related to Abraham and Sarah 2. We must avoid trying to work for blessing by helping God with His plan 3. Too many Believers today spend time trying to help out God 4. Divine power is released by faith towards grace 5. Legalist (works and law) will hate and persecute those who live by grace and faith 6. THE MAJOR APPLICATION: Relax in Grace by Faith
