Immanuel! The God of Adoption, Galatians 4: 4-7
We have spent the last three weeks looking at Immanuel—the God Who is with us. John told us that Jesus is the Incarnate Word, the Eternal God of Life, Light, and Grace. Jesus humbled (humiliated) Himself to provide a way—the only way—for rebel sinners like us to be saved.
If that were all, it would be more than enough. Giving me the opportunity to avoid an eternity in Hell would be far and away the greatest gift I could imagine, but this Good God, this Giver of Good Gifts, has so much more in mind for those who place their trust in Jesus! He offers adoption into His own family and a portion in the inheritance—God’s own riches.
As we unpack our passage today, pay close attention to the way God doesn’t just meet our needs, but goes far beyond anything we could dare imagine.
The Old Testament promised a Messiah, and even revealed Him with surprising accuracy, but every Old Testament believer lived and died without seeing their promised Rescuer.
Hebrews 11:39 "And all these (Old Testament saints), though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised..."
Old Testament believers were saved by faith, but never got to see the coming of the Deliverer. But now, Jesus has come. The time of childhood under the Law is over and time of adult sonship has begun.
As we walk through these verses, we will see Jesus as the God of Adoption—that He offers the source, confirmation, and consummation of adoption into God’s family.
