Lets qualify this.

First of all i do not say to uphold the law.

The law is still in effect as far as a tutor is concerned. however, there is NO justification by upholding to the law.
Its only faith in Christ by Grace which reconciles us back to God.
Likewise the law is a tutor to those who are not yet in Christ.

However, if we sin, the law is the tutor which directs us to christ. It does not save us by upholding it. Hope that's clear.

What was the problem at Galatia which Paul was trying to address?

Its about justification by upholding the law.

Gal 2
16 nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of [n]the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of [o]the Law; since by the works of [p]the Law no [q]flesh will be justified.

Then Paul goes to expound Faith and grace through Christ

Gal 3

You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified? 2 This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by [c]hearing with faith? 3 Are you so foolish? Having begun [d]by the Spirit, are you now [e]being perfected by the flesh? 4 Did you [f]suffer so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain? 5 So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works [g]miracles among you, do it by the works of [h]the Law, or by [i]hearing with faith?

Purpose of the law

9 Why the Law then? It was added [ac]because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the [ad]agency of a mediator, until the seed would come to whom the promise had been made. 20 Now a mediator is not [ae]for one party only; whereas God is only one. 21 Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? May it never be! For if a law had been given which was able to impart life, then righteousness [af]would indeed have been [ag]based on law. 22 But the Scripture has shut up [ah]everyone under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

23 But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed. [B]24 Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.

The Paul uses allegory of Abraham, sarah and Hagar to show sonship or heir.

Allegory is a form of extended metaphor, in which objects, persons, and actions in a narrative, are equated with the meanings that lie outside the narrative itself.

The main gist of this passage is not casting out as you put it BUT

"For the son of the bondwoman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.”

Its about being an heir of promise. The whole Gal 4 chapter is about sonship or heir of the promise.

Paul is quoting this

“Cast out the bondwoman and her son,
For the son of the bondwoman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.”

from Gen 21
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, “Drive out this maid and her son, for the son of this maid shall not be an heir with my son [d]Isaac.”

there was never a system to begin with.

Its in your imagination.

Grace was already in the OT as i showed you

The problem is you want to put grace vs law thing.
Law was never meant to save. So there is nothing to replace or kick out because the purpose of the law was not to save!

The law is not a tutor? Are you reading gal 3? 

Again you dont understand clearly what Paul is trying to bring across.

Its the wrong idea of justification by law, not law per se, understand?

There is NOthing wrong with the law, only the wrong application of it with regards to righteousness.

See here Paul says the law does not invalidate a covenant

17 What I am saying is this: the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years later, does not invalidate a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise. 18 For if the inheritance is [aa]based on law, it is no longer [ab]based on a promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by means of a promise.

Because the promise was never meant to be based a law anyway.

I don't know what's going on between you two. Who's right here?

Moses came with the Law.

Jesus came and nullify the Law, replacing it with Grace of God.

Is that it?

I don't know what the problem is but I think this comment is uncalled for.

Strangest thing .... I always thought bananajoe was muslim ....

no la pehkay & unknown warrior, i was a born again christian. 12 years back, i was  a hindu.

my wife was catholic before she converted to Christianity.

thanks guys, this is interesting. i need time to digest all this content once i'm back from office

If you find discussion so be it. OR rather you may find a refutation to diffcult to swallow? 

Wow! Speaking like that to a bro?  Where be the fruit of the Spirit who you say is your tutor?

Like I said, I don't know what is the problem,

So he's a thorn in the flesh?

And we are to deal with it how........?

A good question for reflection would be,

WHY is there such a reaction from inside us?

hey guys wanna ask about prayer?

somebody taught me to pray...when David was persecuted by Saul..he prayed "why this happen to me???".

Is it ok...when we pray we can ask God "why why, why you do this to me?".

I feel like I missed a whirlwind. Apa jadi? @_@

Good point...I really want to seek Him for the answers.

Right now I am very unclear.

Yay, its ok to ask God "why why why"....

Btw, do you know the verse David said that to God?

No la, its just that if I say "Why this and Why that - because i wanted badly to seek God for the answers".....would not be construed as blaming God, right?

Do you believe in providence?

Ok I give you some examples......for eg...a person when he was a kid studied accountancy...didn't understand what he was learning...he studied hard but his results were all "pass"...while his other friends did past year questions...all got "credits" and distinctions".

Then when he took up jobs...he got lower salaried jobs..while his friends all got better jobs, result from being accelerated from good results. By the time he reached certain age..all his friends had surpassed him. But presently he began to understand what he studied at uni because he could put his studies into practice, but he doesn't understand why his understanding of the accountancy subject was withheld from him, whereas his fellow classmates understood better.

So he prays to God and ask "why why, did you not reveal to me the meaning of accountancy??? Why? Now I have substandard jobs compared to my friends? God please help to show me that all things were done for the betterment of my life???"

Something like this la? So do you think that God did these things for a reason or is it because of our disobedience? Anyways blessings on this world is nothing compared to the blessings of eternal life, right?

dear brounknown warrior

if u post ur devotionals in here, then isn't it natural to accept scrutiny & even correction sometimes?

i've been following since V05 & jul has been pretty decent in the way he debates ur posts. maybe u are greatly offended whn ppl correct u?

his doctrinal explanations have been concise & very understandable. i'm pentecostal like u guys too 

i'm probably just the 2nd person in here to say this, but u DO have an obsession with GRACE vs LAW, to the point whr ur interpretations ermmm......can sometimes sound off by quite a bit actually.........at least to me.

perhaps its got somethg to do wif how u view biblical teachings, due to ur conversion frm a Buddhist background(years ago)-----> Christianity

i'm a 2nd-gen Christian, so i've got no such experience at all. GRACE & LAW have always been pretty clear cut to me.

i do give u lots of credit though, for teaching correct stuff majority of the time 

dun angry      yah!
