The Gospel in Galatians
Our Goal
To reflect on our own
understanding of the gospel.
Allow God’s Spirit to spark a
spiritual revival in our hearts as we rediscover what God has done for
us in Christ.
Ang Ating Mithiin. Upang pag-isipan ang sarili nating pagkaunawa sa ebanghelyo. ¶ Pahintulutan ang Espiritu ng Diyos na pasiklabin ang isang espirituwal na ribaybal sa ating puso habang tinutuklas natin muli ang ginawa ng Diyos para sa atin kay Cristo.

Mula Alipin Tungo sa Tagapagmana

7. From Slaves to Heirs
Key Text
Galatians 4:7 ESV
So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.”
Susing Talata. “Kayat hindi ka na alipin kundi anak, at kung anak ay tagapagmana sa pamamagitan ng Diyos” (Galacia 4:7).

8. From Slaves to Heirs
Initial Words
Paul tells the Galatians that they should not live and act as slaves but as the sons and daughters of God, with all the rights and privileges thereof.
We, too, are God’s heirs, not because of our own merit but because of His grace. In Christ we have much more than we even had before Adam’s sin.
Panimulang Salita. Sinasabi ni Pablo sa mga taga-Galacia na di dapat sila mamuhay at kumilos bilang alipin kundi bilang anak ng Diyos, na may karapatan at pribilehiyo nito. ¶ Tayo rin ay tagapagmana ng Diyos, hindi dahil sa ating sariling merito kundi dahil sa Kanyang biyaya. Kay Cristo ay meron tayong higit pa nang meron na tayo bago nagkasala si Adan.

10. From Slaves to Heirs
1. Under the Slavery of Sin
Galatians 4:1-3 NKJV
The heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave…but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father.
Even, so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world.”
1. Sa Ilalim ng Pagkaalipin ng Kasalanan. “Ang tagapagmana, habang bata pa ay hindi nakahihigit sa alipin…subalit siya ay nasa ilalim ng mga tagapangalaga at mga katiwala hanggang sa panahong itinakda ng ama. ¶ Gayundin tayo, nang tayo’y mga bata pa, tayo’y naalipin sa mga panimulang aral ng sanlibutan” (Galacia 4:1-3).

11. 1. Under the Slavery of Sin
Under the Pedagogue
In the same way that a master’s son was under a pedagogue only as long as he was a minor, Paul is saying that those who come to faith in Christ are no longer minors;
their relationship with the law is changed because they are now adult “sons” of God.
Sa Ilalim ng Pedagogue. Sa katulad na paraan na ang isang anak ng panginoon ay nasa ilalim ng isang pedagogue habang siya’y bata pa, sinasabi ni Pablo na ang mga nakarating sa pananampalataya kay Cristo ay hindi na mga bata; ¶ ang kanilang relasyon sa kautusan ay nabago dahil sila na ngayon ay nasa edad na “mga anak” ng Diyos.

12. 1. Under the Slavery of Sin
Enslaved to Elementary Principles
Paul’s terminology evokes a situation in which an owner of a large estate has died, leaving all his property to his oldest son. His son, however, is still a minor.
The father’s will stipulates that his son is to be under the supervision of guardians and managers until he reaches maturity.
Napaalipin sa mga Panimulang Prinsipyo. Ang terminolohiya ni Pablo ay gumugunita sa isang sitwasyon kung saan ang isang may-ari ng malaking ari-arian ay namatay, na iniiwan ang lahat ng kanyang pag-aari sa panganay na anak na lalaki. Gayunman, ang kanyang anak na lalaki ay bata pa. ¶ Itinakda ng habilin ng ama na ang kanyang anak ay paiilalim sa pangangasiwa ng mga tagapag-alaga’t manedyer hanggang sa siya’y makarating sa hustong gulang.

13. 1. Under the Slavery of Sin
Enslaved to Elementary Principles
Paul’s emphasis on humanity’s status as “minors” suggests that he is referring here to the rudimentary principles of religious life.
The Old Testament period, with its laws and sacrifices, was merely a gospel primer that outlined the basics of salvation. They never were intended to take the place of Christ.
Ang pagdiriin ni Pablo sa katayuan ng sangkatauhan bilang “mga bata” ay nagmumungkahi na tinutukoy niya rito ang mga panimulang prinsipyo ng relihiyosong buhay. ¶ Ang panahon ng Lumang Tipan, kasama ang kanyang mga kautusan at hain, ay mga panimulang-aklat ng ebanghelyo na nagbalangkas ng batayan ng kaligtasan. Hindi sila nilayon na kunin ang lugar ni Cristo.

14. You are no longer a slave but a son, and…heir of God through Christ.”
From Slaves to Heirs
2. Freed from the Slavery of Sin
Galatians 4:4-7 NKJV
When the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son…born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. …
You are no longer a slave but a son, and…heir of God through Christ.”
2. Pinalaya Mula sa Pagkaalipin ng Kasalanan. “Nang dumating ang ganap na kapanahunan, isinugo ng Diyos ang kanyang Anak, na…ipinanganak sa ilalim ng kautusan, upang tubusin ang mga nasa ilalim ng kautusan, upang tanggapin natin ang pagkupkop bilang mga anak. ¶ Hindi ka na alipin kundi anak, at tagapagmana ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ni Cristo” (Galacia 4:4-7).

15. 2. Freed from the Slavery of Sin
“God Sent Forth His Son”
The word fullness indicates God’s active role in working out His purpose in human history. Jesus did not come at just any time; He came at the precise time God had prepared.
That time is known as the Pax Romana, a period of relative stability and peace that facilitated the rapid spread of the gospel.
“Sinugo ng Diyos ang Kanyang Anak.” Ang salitang ganap ay nagpapakita ng aktibong papel ng Diyos sa pagpapalitaw ng Kanyang layunin sa kasaysayan ng tao. Hindi dumating si Jesus sa alinmang panahon; dumating Siya sa tiyak ng panahong inihanda ng Diyos. ¶ Kinilala ang panahong ‘yon na ang Pax Romana, isang panahon ng katamtamang katatagan at kapayapaan na nagpadali sa matuling paglaganap ng ebanghelyo.

16. substitute savior high priest
2. Freed from the Slavery of Sin
“God Sent Forth His Son”
By uniting His divine nature with our fallen human nature, Christ legally qualified to be our Substitute, Savior, and High Priest.
By His death on the cross, He met the justice of the law, which required the death of the sinner, thus gaining the right to redeem all who come to Him in true faith and surrender.
substitute
savior
high priest
Sa pamamagitan ng pagsanib ng Kanyang banal na likas sa ating nagkasalang likas, legal na naging marapat si Cristo na maging ating Tagahalili, Tagapagligtas at Punong Pari. ¶ Sa pamamagitan ng Kanyang kamatayan sa krus, hinarap Niya ang katarungan ng kautusan, na humingi ng kamatayan ng makasalanan, at sa gayo’y natamo ang karapatang tubusin ang lahat na lalapit sa Kanya sa tunay na pananampalataya’t pagsuko.

2. Freed from the Slavery of Sin
“God Sent Forth His Son”
From what do we need to be freed?
The New Testament presents four:
1. The devil, his wiles (Heb. 2:14, 15)
2. Death (1 Cor. 15:56, 57)
3. The power of sin that enslaves us (Rom. 6:22)
4. The condemnation of the law (Rom. 3:19–24, Gal. 3:13, 4:5).
Saan tayo kailangang palayain? // Apat ang inihaharap ng Bagong Tipan: // 1. Sa demonyo’t kanyang mga pakana (Hebreo 2:14, 15). ¶ 2. Sa kamatayan (1 Corinto 15:56, 57). ¶ 3. Sa kapangyarihan ng kasalanan na umaalipin sa atin (Roma 6:22). ¶ 4. Sa kahatulan ng kautusan (Roma 3:19-24, Galacia 3:13, 4:5).

Mga Pribilehiyo ng Pagkupkop. 1. Naging tunay na anak ang kinupkop. ¶ 2. Ibinibigay ang mga pangangailangan ng buhay. ¶ 3. Hindi maitatakwil ng kumupkop ang kinupkop. ¶ 4. Hindi maibababa sa pagkaalipin. ¶ 5. Hindi makukuhang muli ng mga natural na magulang. ¶ 6. Karapatang magmana. ¶ Mas malaki pa ang mga pribilehiyo natin bilang mga kinupkop na anak ng Diyos.

19. You observe days months and seasons and years.”
From Slaves to Heirs
3. Back to the Slavery of Sin?
Galatians 4:9, 10 NKJV
But now after you have known God, or rather are known of God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?
You observe days months and seasons and years.”
3. Balik sa Pagkaalipin ng Kasalanan? “Subalit ngayong nakikilala na ninyo ang Diyos, o sa halip ay kinikilala na kayo ng Diyos, bakit muli kayong nagbabalik sa mahihina at hamak na mga panimulang aral, na sa mga iyon ay nais ninyong muling maging mga alipin? ¶ Nangingilin kayo ng mga araw, mga buwan, mga panahon, at mga taon” (Galacia 4:9, 10).

20. from sonship to slavery.
3. Back to the Slavery of Sin?
Why Turn Back to Slavery?
Paul does not describe the exact nature of the Galatians’ religious practices, but he clearly has in mind a false system of worship that resulted in spiritual slavery.
He deemed it so dangerous and destructive that what they were doing was akin to turning away
from sonship to slavery.
Bakit Bumabalik sa Pagkaalipin? Hindi inilalarawan ni Pablo ang eksaktong likas ng relihiyosong gawi ng mga taga-Galacia, pero malinaw na iniisip niya ang isang maling sistema ng pagsamba na nauuwi sa pagkaaliping espirituwal. ¶ Ipinalagay niya itong napakamapanganib at mapangwasak kaya ang kanilang ginagawa ay katulad sa pagtalikod mula sa pagiging anak tungo na pagkaalipin.

21. objection to the sabbath
3. Back to the Slavery of Sin?
Why Turn Back to Slavery?
Many have interpreted “days and months and seasons and years” as an objection not merely to ceremonial laws but to the Sabbath, as well.
objection to the sabbath
If Paul really wanted to single out the Sabbath and other specific Jewish practices, it is clear from Colossians 2:16 that he easily could have identified them by name.
Marami ang ipinaliwanag ang mga “araw at buwan at panahon at taon” na pagtanggi di lang sa mga kautusang seremonyal kundi sa Sabbath din naman. ¶ Kung gusto talagang daliriin ni Pablo ang Sabbath at ibang mga tiyak na kaugaliang Judio, ay malinaw mula sa Colosas 2:16 na buong dali sana niyang pinangalanan ang mga ito.

22. 3. Back to the Slavery of Sin?
Why Turn Back to Slavery?
Whatever it is the Galatians are doing, it has led them from freedom in Christ to bondage.
“If observance of the seventh-day Sabbath subjects a man to bondage, it must be that the Creator Himself entered into bondage when He observed the world’s first Sabbath!”—The SDA Bible Commentary 6:967.
Anumang ginagawa ng mga taga-Galacia, ay inakay sila nito mula sa kalayaan kay Cristo tungo sa pagkaalipin. ¶ “Kung ang pangingilin ng Sabbath ay inaalipin ang tao, dapat ang Manlalalang mismo ay pumasok sa pagkaalipin nang una Niyang ipinangilin ang unang Sabbath ng mundo!”—The SDA Bible Commentary 6:967.

23. EGW Signs of the Times Jan 2 1893
Final Words
Those who perish will perish because they refuse to be adopted as children of God through Christ Jesus. …
refused adoption
That which will make a man acceptable to God is the imparted grace of Christ through faith in his name. No dependence can be placed in works…for the elect are chosen through Christ.”
Huling Pananalita. “Ang mamamatay ay mamamatay dahil tinanggihan nila na maging kinupkop na anak ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ni Cristo Jesus. ... ¶ Ang magpapaging katanggap-tanggap ng tao sa Diyos ay ang ipinagkaloob na biyaya ni Cristo sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya sa kanyang pangalan. Walang pagdedepende ang ilalagay sa mga gawa…sapagkat ang hinirang ay pinili sa pamamagitan ni Cristo.”—EGW Signs of the Times Jan
