Galatians 4 - 50/50 (Reversible) Flashcards
Given first half of verse (or so), finish second half. (Reversible!)
1 What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage…
GALATIANS 4:1
…he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate.
GALATIANS 4:1
2 The heir is subject to guardians and…
GALATIANS 4:2
…trustees until the time set by his father.
GALATIANS 4:2
3 So also, when we were underage, we were in slavery…
GALATIANS 4:3
…under the elemental spiritual forces of the world.
GALATIANS 4:3
4 But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman…
GALATIANS 4:4-5
…born under the law, 5 to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
GALATIANS 4:4-5
6 Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son…
GALATIANS 4:6
…into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.”
GALATIANS 4:6
7 So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since…
GALATIANS 4:7
…you are his child, God has made you also an heir.
GALATIANS 4:7
8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were…
GALATIANS 4:8
…slaves to those who by nature are not gods.
GALATIANS 4:8
9 But now that you know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that you are turning back…
GALATIANS 4:9
…to those weak and miserable forces? Do you wish to be enslaved by them all over again?
GALATIANS 4:9
10 You are observing special days…
GALATIANS 4:10
…and months and seasons and years!
GALATIANS 4:10
11 I fear for you, that somehow…
GALATIANS 4:11
…I have wasted my efforts on you.
GALATIANS 4:11
12 I plead with you, brothers and sisters, become like me…
GALATIANS 4:12
…for I became like you. You did me no wrong.
GALATIANS 4:12
13 As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you, 14 and even though my illness was a trial to you…
GALATIANS 4:13-14
…you did not treat me with contempt or scorn. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus himself.
GALATIANS 4:13-14
15 Where, then, is your blessing of me now? I can testify that, if you…
GALATIANS 4:15
…could have done so, you would have torn out your eyes and given them to me.
GALATIANS 4:15
16 Have I now become your…
GALATIANS 4:16
…enemy by telling you the truth?
GALATIANS 4:16
17 Those people are zealous to win you over, but for no good. What they want…
GALATIANS 4:17
…is to alienate you from us, so that you may have zeal for them.
GALATIANS 4:17
18 It is fine to be zealous, provided the purpose is good…
GALATIANS 4:18
…and to be so always, not just when I am with you.
GALATIANS 4:18
19 My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,…
GALATIANS 4:19-20
…20 how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone, because I am perplexed about you!
GALATIANS 4:19-20
21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law…
GALATIANS 4:21
…are you not aware of what the law says?
GALATIANS 4:21
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons…
GALATIANS 4:22
…one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.
GALATIANS 4:22
23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh…
GALATIANS 4:23
…but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a divine promise.
GALATIANS 4:23
24 These things are being taken figuratively: The women represent two covenants…
GALATIANS 4:24
…One covenant is from Mount Sinai and bears children who are to be slaves: This is Hagar.
GALATIANS 4:24
25 Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds…
GALATIANS 4:25
…to the present city of Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children.
GALATIANS 4:25
26 But the Jerusalem that is above…
GALATIANS 4:26
…is free, and she is our mother.
GALATIANS 4:26
27 For it is written: “Be glad, barren woman, you who never bore a child; shout for joy and cry aloud,…
GALATIANS 4:27
…you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”
GALATIANS 4:27
28 Now you, brothers and sisters…
GALATIANS 4:28
…like Isaac, are children of promise.
GALATIANS 4:28
29 At that time the son born according to the flesh persecuted…
GALATIANS 4:29
…the son born by the power of the Spirit. It is the same now.
GALATIANS 4:29
30 But what does Scripture say? “Get rid of the slave woman and her son, for the…
GALATIANS 4:30
…slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with the free woman’s son.”
GALATIANS 4:30
31 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are not…
GALATIANS 4:31
…children of the slave woman, but of the free woman.
GALATIANS 4:31
