In the book of Galatians, Paul wants us to see that true freedom comes from accepting God’s grace and living by His promise rather than following strict religious rules. The difficulty in this passage comes from what Paul calls an “allegory”—contrasting two women from the OT, Hagar and Sarah. Paul says these two mothers represent two covenants—one of slavery under the law and the other of freedom through God's promise. And he’s asking the question: “You may claim Abraham as your father, but who’s your mother?” His answer to this question actually ties the whole Bible together—from Genesis to Galatians, so to speak. It shows us that Scripture is not to be taken as a rulebook to live up to but rather as a love story to live into.*This episode is an excerpt taken from Charlie Boyd's message, "Who's Your Mother?"
