Galatians 4:30 - Additional Comments

We know the end result. Those who reject Christ, even those originally born into the promise, will be cast into outer darkness (Matt 8:11-12). Only those who are heirs through Christ, who are now children of the promise (vs 28), will not be cast out.
Note that it refers to Hagar as the bondwomen, because her children will be in bondage, and Sarah the freewoman, because her children will be in freedom. The lineage of Hagar symbolizes those who reject Christ, and the lineage of Sarah symbolizes those who accept Christ by faith (see vs 31).
