Speaker: Roger Day Intro: "Dear AI, can you tell me: who is God?” YAHWEH: “I am who I am” Getting to know the ruler who reveals & rescues for relationship 1. Yahweh, the real ruler, keeps his word (11:1-10, 12:29-36) - his promises of rescue for his enslaved people (11:1-3?12:21-26) (see also 3:18-22 & Genesis 15:14) - his warnings of judgement on rebellion and idolatry (11:4-8?11:29-30; see 4:23 & 1) 2. Yahweh, the gracious rescuer, saves through a spotless substitute sacrifice (12:1-13, 21-27) Shadows

Intro: You say I’m free… so why does Christian living feel like a battle? So far: You are full, free heirs of God (Curse cancelled! Adoption secured! Holy Spirit given!) ?

(5v16;5v25) Q: But why do we need to be told? (Given Galatians 4:6? Given Ezekiel 36:22-27?) 1. Christians, realise you’re currently in a tug of war! (5:16-18)

Intro: Freedom!! Galatians so far recap: Trusting Christ has made you full, free children of God (3:7-9; 3:29; 4:7, 4:31; 5:1) 1. So do not lose your freedom, by submitting to slavery!! (5:1-12) - Careful what you wish for: God’s gospel = 0% DIY top ups - Careful whom you listen to: God’s gospel = offence of the cross 2. And do not abuse your freedom, but use it to love (5:13, 5:6)

Intro: Do you know who I am? Meeting on the mountain: 1. The gracious “I AM” is determined to rescue richly! (3:16-22) 2. But messenger Moses is a really reluctant rescuer (4:1-17) ? Unlike Jesus…! ? But quite like us…? Jolts on the journey: (4:18-31) 3. Shock 1: Pharaoh won’t budge until Passover night comes (4:21-23) o (and that’s part of God’s plan!) 4.
