HEIRS THROUGH FAITH   Galatians 3:23-29             Print this Bible Study

STIMULATE

** At the close of last week's Bible study, we asked the question, "If you "hold fast" to God's truth and live your life according to His wisdom, how will you live every day?" What was the answer to that question?

You will live every day being "Happy" in your faith because God has accomplished your salvation and given you the faith to believe in His Son! (Proverbs 3:18)

** You may recall that it was our common goal to strive to live each day as joyful, thankful, full of praise people, who are "Happy in Faith". How did you do this past week?

Through the many trials of our life (and the trials of those around us) we should see the faithfulness of our God and rejoice in His sufficient grace!

MOTIVATE

** Today, we will be concluding the first half of Paul's letter to the Galatians. As we do, let me ask you a question, do you know your ancestry? What does your family tree look like and how should it impact your ability to live for Christ? Let's look at the passage for today together and learn the answer. Please join me in Galatians 3:23-29 and we will see how we became "Heirs through Faith".

Heirs through Faith

INVESTIGATE

V.23 ** Did Abraham have faith in God?

Of course he did! We have been learning all along that God reckoned Abraham's faith as righteousness, which is why Paul calls him "Abraham, the believer" back in verse nine of this chapter. (Galatians 3:9)
