Galatians 6:11-18

In the closing verses of this epistle, Paul warns the Galatians and denounces those who are preaching a false gospel as charlatans who only care about making “a good showing in the flesh.” His conscience is clear and his motives are pure, refusing to boast in anything but the cross of Christ.

Galatians 6:1-10

The gospel is all about truth, grace and having faith in Christ, but it is also about the practical realities of getting along with other people. Bear one another's burdens and do not grow weary in doing good, especially to your brothers and sisters in the Lord.

Galatians 5:13-26

Life is always a struggle. Accepting Christ is the beginning of a journey, not an arrival. When you accept Christ, there’s still a battle with the flesh. So, it’s important to walk in the Spirit rather than the flesh. And the fruit of doing that is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Galatians 5:1

For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

Through the weakness of preachers and preaching, the Gospel is powerful to the conversion and transformation of sinners like us for His own glory.

Human slavery is a grievous and tragic abuse, but there is yet a deeper and more tragic bondage - our slavery to sin. God in Christ has rescued us out of that bondage, so don't go back!

If the Law can't save you, then why do we have it? If it only stirs up our sin and condemns us, what good is it? It is the Guardian or Schoolmaster that points us to Christ!

The human race is all under a curse, locked in bondage to sin, condemned by the Law. Is there no escape? Only in Christ who took our curse upon himself at the cross

Faith alone and in nothing else - that is the anchor of our hope. Beware lest you be tempted to accept a substitute, or to trust in anything else or anything less.

In Christ alone and by faith alone is my salvation - not by anything I have done or achieved. I have died to self and my life is hidden in Christ.

Paul vehemently defends the truth of the gospel against those who would add anything to it. In Christ we are free from the Law's demands; free to trust solely and utterly in his grace.

The Good News of Jesus Christ is NOT a man-made religion. Paul received it from Christ and passed it on to us.

Objective Truth meets Personal Experience in the Gospel of Jesus Christ - His redemptive work applied to our hearts.
