Abraham’s Two Sons
Galatians 4.21-31


Not long ago, there was an international rugby match played in pouring rain. The pitch became muddier and muddier, and the players got dirtier and dirtier. The spectators couldn’t tell which side was which. Then the referee discovered that even he could no longer recognize who was on which side. Finally the players themselves couldn’t tell the difference between their own side and the opposition.

So the referee offered them the chance to go and change into clean kit. One side refused: they were proud of their national jerseys, and didn’t want to look like cowards, changing out of wet clothes into dry ones. The other side were delighted, and went off to change into warm, dry kit. When they came out again, not only could everyone tell the difference between the two sides; the side in the clean kit felt so much better that they went on to win the match...
