THE LAW OF the FIRSTBORN

[good samaritan]

Abraham firstborn was to the bondwoman, but the second was to a free woman. He was to cast out the bondwoman(law) and to receive the child of promise (Spirit). It is not the first birth that is of the most importance, but it is the second birth (being born again). I believe that there is still a message in in regards to the firstborn, but it is that we no longer under the law. We are to be born again.

That is similar to what i said. The firstborn always indicates flesh and ADAM. the next in line who was the true heir speaks of Christ and new birth by Spirit. Resurrection, in short.
