Galatians 1:10-17

Demonstration of independence: From Human Teaching

January 25, 2023 • Erik Miller • Galatians 1:10–17

Paul explains his testimony of how he received the gospel of Jesus Christ – not from any man but from Christ himself. This is important for the church of Galatia to understand, that the gospel Paul preached is in fact truth and not something invented by man.

Prepare for this week's teaching by reading Galatians 1:10-17

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!
