To redeem those under law/elemental principles

[marie glen]

Galatians chapter 4 says God locked up all under law.. under the elemental principles of the world - we were all locked into the law/elemental principle of sin and death.. (1-3) [Sin/missing the mark/imperfection = dying, death; "all locked up into"]

Then verses 4 and 5 say:
"and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law, that He might redeem those under the Law, so that we might receive the divine adoption as sons."

That He might redeem "those under the law" which was (btw) "all"..

This has likely been mentioned.. but this seems to me to suggest the reconciliation of "all".


Interesting to note also is how "then in the fullness of time.. at the right time.. God sent forth His Son.. there's the more literal.. "time" He came into the world as Son of man, then the still literal, when He comes forth to a person and into their heart / the regeneration/born again. Interesting also that one coming does not cancel out the other. — His coming to each heart in their fullness of time, does not cancel out that He came into the world. He is born into each heart. But He was also born into the world.
