And you, dear brothers and sisters, are children of the promise, just like Isaac. But you are now being persecuted by those who want you to keep the law, just as Ishmael, the child born by human effort, persecuted Isaac, the child born by the power of the Spirit. But what do the Scriptures say about that? “Get rid of the slave and her son, for the son of the slave woman will not share the inheritance with the free woman’s son.” So, dear brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman; we are children of the free woman.

Do you ever feel like you have collected so many mistakes and disappointments that your life will forever be tainted by them? Is there such a thing as new life? Jesus offers a second chance to forget about the past and become a new person. This three-day reading plan will encourage you to look beyond your experiences and to a brighter future.
Many Christians feel the frustration of persistent sin, undesirable circumstances, and the stubborn feeling of having fallen behind. The doubts that arise from these experiences find their Gospel rebuttal in Romans 8:1: “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Remind yourself of the far-reaching implications of this radical promise for your life now and in eternity.

Jesus Christ has a right to be God’s heir and to receive the inheritance. We do not. We enjoy this wonderful prospect and promise only by God’s grace. It is only because He has brought us into His family that we are joint-heirs with Christ.
This plan will explore what the letter of Galatians teaches us in four major areas. 1) WHO GOD IS: God’s character and nature 2) WHO WE ARE: the identity of humanity and/or believers 3) WHAT WE BELIEVE: core Christian doctrines 4) HOW WE LIVE: putting faith into action
