A Compelling Truth: A 30 Day Journey through Galatians with Rob Stanmore

DAY 15 OF 30

DAY 15

 What does it truly mean to be a son or a daughter?

In Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis writes, 
"The Son of God became a man to enable men to become sons of God.”

Paul begins to draw from a huge economic divide to show the power of what it means to be accepted by God from a slave to a son.

We begin to see that what Jesus has done for us is like the redemption a slave experiences by being bought from a slave market. However, also simultaneously, like a son in a wealthy household receiving an inheritance.

The gospel message isn’t just the transfer of sin from us, but the rights of a son transferred to us. 

Inheritance isn’t earned, but it is received because of the rights of being a son or a daughter.

In the same way, the acceptance of God cannot be earned, but it is received like an inheritance, and the time has come.


Question

How does this impact the way you approach God knowing you have received grace as an inheritance, not a prize?
