Two Mountains, Two Covenants: Escaping the Schoolmaster’s Grip

Описание: Two Mountains, Two Covenants: Escaping the Schoolmaster’s Grip

Discover the liberating truth of your identity as a child of the promise, born of the free woman and heir to God's grace. This teaching contrasts the bondage of the law—which demands but cannot empower—with the freedom of the gospel, which supplies the Spirit through faith alone. Learn to recognize spiritual persecution from legalistic systems and embrace your position of waiting on God, who gives life to the dead and fulfills His promise in you without your striving. Rest in the assurance that you are accepted, free, and complete in Christ, called to live from His finished work.

Theological Summary:
Based on the provided theological content, here is a summary of the main theological points:

• *The Law versus the Gospel (Promise)* - The Mosaic Law, represented by Mount Sinai and Hagar, demands righteousness but provides no power to fulfill it, leading to bondage. In contrast, the Gospel, represented by the promise to Sarah, provides the Spirit and life through faith. - Galatians 3:2-3; 4:24-25

• *Justification and Life by Promise, Not Flesh* - Right standing with God and the Christian life are received by believing God's promise (the Gospel), not by human effort or works of the law. The Spirit is supplied through the "hearing of faith." - Galatians 3:5, 22; 4:23, 28

• *Two Covenants Represented Allegorically* - The lives of Hagar/Ishmael and Sarah/Isaac serve as an allegory for two opposing covenants: one of slavery (Law from Sinai) and one of freedom (the New Covenant promise). - Galatians 4:24-26

• *Persecution from Legalistic Systems* - Imposing legalistic requirements for fellowship or righteousness is identified as a form of spiritual persecution, where believers are subtly seduced back into bondage. - Galatians 4:17, 29

• *The Believer's Identity as Free Children of Promise* - Christians are identified as children of the "free woman" (the Jerusalem above), making them heirs of God's promise, free from the law's bondage, and called to live in that freedom. - Galatians 4:26, 28, 31

• *The Principle of Waiting on God's Life* - The true spiritual life (represented by Isaac/Christ) is produced by God's power giving life to what is dead, requiring believers to wait on His promise rather than striving in
