A choice between two


After Galatians 4:21-31
 

Two women, one called

Hagar, one called Sarah,

one slave, one free, and

two covenants, one of flesh

one of promise, one

from Sinai, one from

Jerusalem above, one

from the family of self-

reliance, one from 

the family of salvation.

And so, a choice:

the flesh or 

the promise; slavery

or freedom; Sinai or

Jerusalem. Choose,

but remember: only

the free inherit, only

the free are heirs, 

their lives paid for.
