True Freedom--Galatians 4:21-31

Lesson 10 As you read through these verses think back to what you know about Isaac and Ishmael. 

1. What is the allegory in these verses? What is contrasted in this allegory? 

2. What two covenants are being compared? 

3. What do we learn about the births in this allegory? 

4. How was Isaac born? Compare this to Galatians 3:17-18. What did you see about the promise? 

5. Think back on the last two lessons. Who are we descendents of and with whom are we joint heirs? 

 

6. Read Galatians 4:28, 31; 3:16,19,29. To whom was the promise given? With whom does He share it? 

 

7. In Galatians 3:13-14 what does Jesus do and what do we receive as a result? 

 

8. Read Jeremiah 31:21-33, Ezekiel 36:26-27. In Jeremiah what was promised? In Ezekiel what was promised? 

9. Read II Corinthians 1:20-22, Ephesians 1:13-14, Hebrews 7:22; 8:6-13. Which covenant is better and why? 

WHICH COVENANT IS YOUR POSITION IN? WHICH COVENANT ARE YOU TRYING TO LIVE UNDER?
