Book of Galatians

Day 21

READ Galatians 3:23-25
Before the coming of this faith, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed. So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

COMMENTARY:
In these verses, Paul describes the role of the law as a guardian until the time of Christ. He emphasizes that now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law. Paul highlights the freedom and liberation that come from faith in Christ, as believers are now children of God through faith.

Questions to ponder:

  • Reflect on the role of the law as a guardian. How does this truth impact your understanding of the law’s significance in God’s redemptive plan?
  • Consider the freedom and liberation that come from faith in Christ. How does this truth bring hope and assurance to your life?
