4. But when the fullness of time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,5. To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. Galatians 4:4-5. Paul clearly states Christ was born a Jew under the law and lived under it until His death. By His death, all who receive Him, Jew or Gentile, have pardon, salvation, and eternal life. For being covered in Christ's righteousness, we have been adopted into God's family, and the adopted have the same rights as the Son. Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac; Ishmael is the son of a servant, Isaac is the son of the promise of God. Christ comes from the promise of God, and the offspring of the bondwoman are cast out. Study this carefully; you are of the promise of God in Christ. And no one has the power to take away your inheritance, which is salvation and eternal life in Christ. Live this life! Amen.
