Through Christ, we have freedom from the Law but do not freedom to sin.

Faith is about Jesus and so is freedom. The Galatians are considering getting circumcised because false teachers have told them they have to. Paul clarifies that circumcision is not a spiritual thing and that being under the Law was far more complicated than just being circumcised.

The illustration of differences by looking at the two sons of Abraham. Review of Genesis 16:1-6 for the analogy of the two sons. Paul then illustrates two theological paths, thus not mixing the Law with the Gospel.

Paul is teaching the Galatians to leave works righteousness, reminding them that their relationship with the Law changed they embraced Christ.

Galatians had embraced the Judaizers' teaching. Paul explained that that the Law was the equivalent to the elementary teachings of Paganism. The Law was not a bad thing but showed us the need for a Savior.

We are adopted as "Sons of God", where there is no distinction between male or female, classes, Jew or Gentile.

Gen. 12:1-3 - Abrahamic Covenant. The Abrahamic Covenant wasn't fulfilled through the Law but through Christ. The Law doesn't affect salvation but shows us that we need a Savior.
