Tongues of Fire-Pastor Paul's Podcast-Episode #24-Grace

Welcome to Tongues of Fire-Pastor Paul's Podcast-Episode #24-Grace.

Today's message 'Grace' helps us to understand the law. In a letter to the Galatians 4:21, the Apostle Paul asks the church, 'Tell me, you who desire to be subject to the law, will you not listen to the law?' Then he shows the difference between those who trust Christ and those who trust the law using an allegory of Isaac and Ishmael. Pastor Paul expounds on this allegory to help us understand the original promise, the covenant, of God to Abraham regarding Isaac.

Ishmael, the son of Hagar a slave, represents Sinai and the law that leads to bondage and death. By contrast Isaac, the son of Sarah, the fulfillment of God's promise, leads to the 'heavenly' Jerusalem which is free having life. Pastor Paul shows how Christ represents the perfect Lamb created before the foundation of the world was founded. He represents the original covenant, the promise, to Abraham. Our faith, like Abraham's, is in the promise of God. Christ's sacrifice represents the unconditional love of God.

Are we bound or free?
