Brothers, I entreat you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. — Galatians 4:12 
 
So let's recall the context first. Paul is trying to persuade the believers in Galatia that God's redemptive grace gives them salvation and freedom from old ways. And in the following few verses, Paul will slightly change his tone. He will move from a rational approach, which is Paul's style, to more of a relational approach, something we don't see that often from him. 
 
If you are a father out there, you know this moment. It's that moment you struggle to understand how to address a child. You're unsure. Do you come at them hard, or do you go at them soft? And in your mind, you have tried to teach them this same frustrating lesson a thousand times. Yet, still, you are willing to do anything and try anything to help them understand because you love them that much! 
 
Today I want you to suffer just a little longer for that friend, brother, son, or father in your life who is yet to understand and believe. Suffer a little long through their unbelief. And do it because it's right to do. I know you might want to give up on them, but don't. And if you need something to inspire you, remember Christ never gave up on you. And then suffer through their misunderstanding and love them the same. 
 
ASK THIS: Who is someone you feel like you are suffering for? 
 
DO THIS: Share their name below. 
 
PRAY THIS: God, help (insert name) understand and know you. 
 
PLAY THIS: Big Daddy Weave — Jesus, I Believe.

I have been teaching the Bible verse by verse on radio and television for over 30 years. My goal has always been to teach it in a clear simple understandable way, and to make it as practical as possible. As the name implies these commentaries are basic, and hopefully they will make Scripture more understandable for you. I pray they are used by God to draw you closer to Christ.

Adopted Children of God (Galatians 4:1-11) Living Life 10/25/2024 Daily Devotional Bible Study

Start your morning with reflections from the Word of God.

Begin in the Word

4:8 But then, indeed, when you did not know God, you served those which by nature are not gods. 9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain. 
12 Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all. 13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first. 14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth? 
 
 
The New King James Version (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1982), Ga 4:8–16.

How strange this must seem or sound to most of us... to live by belief and not by what we see. I fear our eyes and our ears have to much power over us... over our belief. Which should be in Jesus Christ and not the letter of the law. The law is in vain if your belief, hope, love and trust is not in our ADNY(Lord). This is the whole point of a servant becoming a son... of just following with our lips as to following with our heart. Is it just our lips that praise our Father, or everything that we are? Psalm 19:14 says, “May the words of my lips and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight YHWH, my rock and my redeemer.” So it is not just our outside, but what is inside us that matters. Our outsides have become vanity while our insides have become wretched and wicked. We have become mere shells of “dead men’s bones.” May we turn to and accept Jesus Christ in our lives and may he change our hearts. For we were born of the flesh, but now need to be born of the spirit. May we seek, knock and ask the kingdom and may we find, the door be opened and may it be given to us... blessed Father, please hear us, come into us, change our lives and purify us from this lost state of being. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

From Slaves to Sons (Galatians 4:1-11)

Lord willing, we will post videos every Sunday & Wednesday at 7am CT.

VBR is a bible study project inspired by the popular “Bible Readings” conducted in the brotherhood in the early 20th Century. These Bible Readings were generally 6 weeks, or more, of intense daily Bible study meetings for all Christians. They resulted in considerable spiritual growth in the brotherhood with many students becoming elders, evangelists and teachers.

In the 21st Century, 6-week bible readings are difficult to accomplish, therefore the concept of video bible readings (VBR) is a modern alternative to promote personal bible study among the Lord’s church today.

Tom Allen from the Nixa church of Christ and Dwain Stoops from the Riverside Road church of Christ are initiating the direction and production of VBR as an online source of private bible studies taught by various faithful evangelists, elders, or teachers over the coming years. 

May you grow closer to God as you join us in searching the Scriptures.

The Epistle to the Galatians, often shortened to Galatians, is the ninth book of the New Testament. It is a letter from Paul the Apostle to a number of Early Christian communities in Galatia.

Galatians 4:8-20 (ESV) Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. 9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years! 11 I am afraid I may have labored over you in vain. 12 Brothers, I entreat you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong. 13 You know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first, 14 and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus. 15 What then has become of your blessedness? For I testify to you that, if possible, you would have gouged out your eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?[b] 17 They make much of you, but for no good purpose. They want to shut you out, that you may make much of them. 18 It is always good to be made much of for a good purpose, and not only when I am present with you, 19 my little children, for whom I am again in the anguish of childbirth until Christ is formed in you! 20 I wish I could be present with you now and change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.

12 Mga kapatid, nakikiusap ako sa inyo, kayo'y maging kagaya ko, sapagkat ako'y naging katulad din ninyo. Wala kayong ginawang masama sa akin. 13 Nalalaman ninyo na dahil sa karamdaman ng katawan ay una kong ipinangaral sa inyo ang ebanghelyo. 14 Bagaman ang aking kalagayan ay naging isang pagsubok sa inyo, hindi ninyo ako hinamak o kinasuklaman kundi tinanggap na gaya sa isang anghel ng Diyos, gaya ni Cristo Jesus. 
 
LIKE AN ANGEL OF GOD. 
Paul was sick when he first met the Galatians. Was it a chronic illness? . In 2 Cor 12, he describes "thorn in the flesh" allowed by God to keep him from becoming conceited. This perhaps was a form of physical illness. Some even suggested that it was a visual impairment. Or, perhaps it was simply a disease that came and then went away. We really don't know. 
 
At any rate, he referred his condition as a trial or burden for the Galatians. Perhaps he either needed an urgent medical care from them or he was just an annoyance. Again, we have no idea. Certainly, it made him look weak in the eyes of the Galatians. It’s easy for people to associate illnes with weakness. Or, they may assumed illness to be the punishment of God or the gods for great wrongdoing. A mark of a person’s rejection from the gods. 
 
Despite of this, they received Paul as if he was an angel or Christ Himself. They valued his message about faith in Jesus so that they refused to allow his illness to keep them from honoring him. If the messenger can be trusted, the message is received. Definitely, Paul’s life had exuded the beauty of Christ. Just a note. Paul and Barnabas were mistaken to be gods when they in Lystra [see Acts 14:11-13] 
 
To them, Paul had no ambiguity in declaring the gospel, either by his lips or life. He strongly said, “But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.”[Gal 1:8,9] 
 
He was so sure that his message is consistent to his manner. He testified before the Thessalonians, saying, “our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.”[1 Thess 1:5] Even to the Corinthians, he said, “Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.”[1 Cor 11:1] 
 
How about us? Are our words consistent with our walk? Our talks with our testimonies? Our conduct with our claims? How do people perceive us when we talk with them? As an angel of God or a fallen angel?
