KJV summary for : Galatians 4

Summary: In Galatians Chapter 4, the Apostle Paul continues his argument regarding the contrast between the old covenant of the law and the new covenant of grace. He begins by illustrating the position of believers as heirs, using the example of a child who, while an heir, is still under guardianship until the appointed time. Paul emphasizes that through Christ, believers have been adopted as children of God, receiving the Spirit of the Son and the ability to call God "Abba, Father". The chapter warns the Galatians against returning to their former ways of observing the law and engaging in pagan practices, which Paul sees as a regression from their newfound freedom in Christ. He expresses his deep concern for their spiritual state and reminds them of the joy that existed when they first embraced the gospel. Paul concludes with an allegorical interpretation of the story of Abraham's two sons—Isaac and Ishmael—to further illustrate the distinction between the promise of God and human effort, underscoring the theme of freedom in Christ versus bondage under the law. Overall, Chapter 4 reinforces the foundational Christian belief that salvation and acceptance before God are grounded in faith and grace rather than adherence to the law.
