As Paul continues to develop his case with the Galatians about the true gospel, both its meaning and implications for them, he moves to their position as heirs, as children of God through faith in Jesus. In verses 4-7, Paul very succinctly expresses the truths of the gospel message: the incarnation of the second person of the trinity, the humanity of Jesus - as demonstrated by his birth from a woman, his birth and life under the law, his redemption of humanity - who are themselves under the curse of the law and our adoption as children (sons) of God. The riches and glories of the gospel message are amazing for believers and Paul does not want the Galatians to misunderstand them.
The major theme of Galatians is the gospel – the message of salvation! What is it? Who is right about the means of salvation? In order to fully address this vital issue, Paul is going to address the subjects of Jesus, the Holy Spirit, faith, justification, freedom, the law and the implications of these in our daily living. Galatians is not a book offering believers the ultimate license to live however they please. Galatians is instead an explanation of all that we possess through the glorious gospel of Jesus and the implications of it for our daily lives. The gospel is given and intended to change us, to shape us more into the image of Jesus. By God’s grace, we can understand the truth of the gospel and be transformed by it.
