2 But is vnder tutors and gouernours vntill the time appointed of the father.
3 Euen so we, when wee were children, were in bondage vnder the Elements of the world:
5 To redeeme them that were vnder the Law, that we might receiue the adoption of sonnes.
8 Howbeit, then when ye knew not God, yee did seruice vnto them which by nature are no Gods.
10 Yee obserue dayes, and moneths, and times, and yeeres.
11 I am afraide of you, lest I haue bestowed vpon you labour in vaine.
12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are, ye haue not iniured me at all.
13 Ye know how through infirmitie of the flesh, I preached the Gospel vnto you at the first.
16 Am I therefore become your enemie, because I tell you the trueth?
17 They zelously affect you, but not well: yea, they would exclude you, that you might affect them.
19 My litle children, of whom I trauaile in birth againe, vntill Christ bee formed in you:
20 I desire to bee present with you now, and to change my voyce, for I stand in doubt of you.
21 Tell me, ye that desire to be vnder the Law, doe ye not heare the Law?
22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sonnes, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
26 But Ierusalem which is aboue is free, which is the mother of vs all.
28 Now wee, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

One's Galatians Chapter 4 comment on 6/08/2013, 2:07pm...
Young Children, Understand that, the Law is not our obligation, to receive, or keep our salvation:
But it is are lamp to see God's will.... And when we desire a close relationship with God; we will start to pray, more than what we already do; We'll start to Scarface more of our time, and even our bodies: denying ourselves food for days; replacing our indulgence of food, with praise and worship to God, for the hole time that we fast. .... For through observation we see that God requires a sacrifice; one out of many, and most important examples is Jesus Christ, but the Bible says in 1 Samuel 15:22,that, "Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold,TO OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, and to hearken than the fat of rams". .....
So the law is like a mirror; showing us, how close or how far we are from God, cause the closer we are to God: the more in-line we will be with the Law. ... And to back up that quote is the scripture 1 John 5:13, and it says, "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments". .... So the more we Love God, the more righteous we will become through his ***istance; not by our works of the Law; but through are level of relationship with him.

To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. I AM REDEEMED, I’ve been REDEEMED by the BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST THE RIGHTEOUS. Redemption: Purchasing the slave; Christ purchased the sinner in the market place. The original Greek means that HE CAME OUT OF HIS WAY, WALKED INTO THE MARKET PLACE WHERE SLAVES WERE BEING SOLD AND WENT IN A BOUGHT THAT SLAVE FOR HIMSELF. I mean that Jesus said Father, I am going down on earth, let me disrobe myself, let me remove all the Glory, I am going to lay down my life for them, I am going to pay the price for them. I am going to redeemed them. I am going to go to the market place and I am going to pay the price for the slave. “Thou shalt call His Name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins.” The Greek word there comes from the word SATARIEA. Which means Salvation. In other words I just didn’t come to wipe your sins out, but I came to heal your body, to deliver you and to set you free.

I get it!now to live it.....GRACE (with GRATITUDE) is the only way.not law....LIFE is in THE "BLOOD".,of JESUS.
Timothy Wayne George's Galatians Chapter 4 comment on 3/29/2012, 8:10am...
Paul tells the Galatians have I become your enemy because I tell you the truth. We as ministers are to speak the truth in love, and while we sometimes make enemies of the people that we speak to, it is the truth that sets men free. The Galatian Church received Paul as an angel of God,and Paul faithfully preached the word of God to them with his weakness in the flesh. How the churches need to do that to those who have disabilities. My church voted to close down in 2008 after the pastor passed away, and due to my disability I was left without church to minister to. God be praised while I am disabled, the Gospel is not disabled, and the truth that sets men free continues to go out. We are the children of the free woman, and not the bond woman. So we must glorify God is our body, and wait for the blessed hope the glorious coming of our Lord Jesus Christ who shall change our vile bodies. We shall see him as he is, and we shall be like him.

what a wonderful promise in galatians..we are no longer sons and daughters of the bond woman but of the free woman.. We should no longer be enslaved by sin, but be freed through Jesus Christ who loved us and gave himself for us. What a saccrifice .
Jessica's Galatians Chapter 4 comment on 10/29/2011, 9:25am...
at the beginning it says that an heir is like a servant under tutors and govenors until it is time for him to rule. so i feel like it is saying we must still work for the furtherence of Gods kingdom. learning under our pastors, studying the word, fasting, and praying, and then take what we learn and teach others through our actions words and deeds always giving God the glory, until we are called up into heaven with Him. but i think it is works that the ppl had to do under the law that we are free from. like no more animal sacrifices because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice and things like that that we are not to do any longer.
Ben Weaver's Galatians Chapter 4 comment about verse 30 on 11/22/2010, 8:47pm...
Apparently we are to cast our our human attempts to bring about God's promises, because our well-meant worldly religious endeavors will not bring about God's life in us like Jesus does. We cannot be an overcomer on our own and God usually does not automatically change us, but only we can apply to our lives that which only Jesus could have made available for us. He that has the Son has life (otherwise/otherwise) (1 Jn. 5:12).
Ben Weaver's Galatians Chapter 4 comment about verse 30 on 11/22/2010, 6:08am...
As God did not himself cast out Hagar and her son but told Abraham to cast them out, I feel he is telling us to cast out our well meant religious attempts at self control. It has been said that the final effort of the flesh is to try to save itself. In order to enter God's rest, we need to cease from our own labors (Heb. 4:10). As we surrender, invite Jesus to be Lord in every area of our life and declare our safe position in him, we will find rest for our souls as he promised in Matt.11:29. May our Lord direct.
