Galatians 3:1-14

Vindication of Message: Thesis Stated and Evidence for the OT

March 1, 2023 • Erik Miller • Galatians 3:1–14

Paul states the basis for our lives, if we call ourselves Christian, is believing by faith in Christ’s finished work on the cross. He gives evidence from the Old Testament, teaching that Faith has been the basis of salvation all along. We serve a Faithful and Unchanging God!

Galatians 6:11-18

May 10, 2023 • Erik Miller • Galatians 6:11–18

The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is lavished on us because of the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. ß This is everything! The approvals we seek, the significance we long for, the cares of this world that weigh us down are all covered by Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection. To the extent that we understand Grace we can enjoy the true and lasting freedom our souls crave.

Galatians 5:19-6:10

May 3, 2023 • Erik Miller • Galatians 5:19—6:10

Paul contrasts the actions that come from our sinful nature with the ones from the Holy Spirit. The result of keeping close to Jesus will more and more reveal in our lives the characteristics of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Galatians 5:13-18

April 19, 2023 • Erik Miller • Galatians 5:13–18

The freedom Paul is talking about is a freedom from selfishness and from the desires of our flesh that war against the Holy Spirit’s work of goodness in our lives. It is a freedom that equips us to serve others with a love that concerns itself with their wellbeing. When we misunderstand and mis-use our freedoms we find ourselves enslaved again and not actually free! Paul says instead to live our lives by the power of the Holy Spirit, responding to His guidance and submitting to His rule. This is where true freedom is found!
