Galatians Bible Study: Part 9

Galatians 4:11-31. Paul worries that his labor with the Galatians is in jeopardy of being in vain. He wishes he could “mind-meld” with them so they could understand what he understood. Paul delivers a warning of the methods of those who are courting the Galatians and causing division with false teaching, reminding them that a return to the law as a means of justification only guarantees death. He supports this argument by paralleling Sarah and Hagar with the Old and New Covenants.
