When are we no longer under a schoolmaster according to Galatians 3:25?
According to Galatians 3:25, we are no longer under a schoolmaster after the faith way has come—that is, once salvation is by faith plus nothing in what God has said. In God's progressive revelation, when a person comes to that place, the tutor's role ends.
Les teaches that Galatians 3:25 should be read with the word 'way' placed after faith, so it means that after the faith way is come—being saved by faith plus nothing in what God has said—once we come to that place in God's economy in this progressive revelation, then we are no longer under a schoolmaster. Les explains that the schoolmaster Paul refers to is not in the Jewish economy but in the Greek and Roman world. A Greek or Roman father would hire a slave, a servant, and instruct that servant to raise and tutor the child until a designated future point, whether age 16, 18, 21, or whatever. At that point the tutor could say, 'Master, this young man is now ready to come in and work right with you in your business. He has everything he needs to know. He has been well tutored, and he is well prepared.'
But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
