You Always Reap What You Sow (Galatians 6:7-10)
Ever try to change a law – the law of time or the law of gravity
These are laws you can’t change. Well, there is another law that you can’t change – you always REAP what you SOW. Live by the deeds of the flesh and you will reap sin and consequences. Live dependently upon the Spirit, producing the fruit of the Spirit and you will reap the consequences of love and joy and peace. Though our salvation is by grace, through faith in Christ alone, a salvation that forgives you for all your sin, you will STILL, in this life, reap what you sow; you will experience the consequences of your actions, whether they be of the flesh or of the Spirit.
‘Spiritual’ Friends and Churches, Part 2 (Galatians 6:3-6)
The passage is NEXT LEVEL. Truly spiritual people not only pick others up, hold them up, but they consider others more important than themselves, we don’t compare ourselves to others, we actually are responsible for our own walk with God and ministry, and will support the ministry of our church in a BIG WAY. Get ready for a practical challenge to ALL who desire to be IN THE SPIRIT Spiritual.

Read MoreAttractive Christians and Tasty Churches (Galatians 5:22-26)
In contrast to the DEEDS of the FLESH where people TRY to earn their own salvation or TRY to live the Christian life in their own strength, even Christians who try to earn God’s favor over and over… in contrast to all that, is THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT. This is what the Spirit produces in us and through us, making us ATTRACTIVE CHRISTIANS and making our church TASTY! Giving evidence of true salvation, appearing as a group and not individually, helping you overcome sin, is the display of God’s fruit through you.
Read MoreThe Disease of Loving Self (Galatians 5:19-22)
Galatians asks, do you ever get sick of your SELF? Are you blown away by how people now live selfishly and justify it with words like, ‘That’s is my identity’; or ‘This is what I am made for’ all the while, somehow legitimizing a narcissistic lifestyle. This week, Galatians 5:19-22 exposes the deeds of the flesh – you need these verses for your own life and you desperately need this passage to understand our world today in a new way. You must not miss it, it’s a real EYE OPENER!
Read More‘Free in Christ’ is “Alive in Christ” (Galatians 5:13-18)
BACK TO GALATIANS – Free in Christ means ALIVE in Christ. You and I have been made free, but not free from responsibility, but free from enslavement to SIN, the DEVIL and this WORLD. We are now slaves of the perfect master, our friend and savior Jesus Christ. We are freed to SERVE, and freed to LOVE, and freed to actually GET ALONG with each other. As we WALK in the Spirit, we enjoy an entirely new kind of LIFE, known for its joy, peace, kindness, service to others and love. READ Galatians 5 – the entire chapter in preparation for this Sunday, focusing on Verses 13-18.

Read MoreNever Go There Again (Galatians 5:1-6)
Paul’s challenge to NEVER GO THERE AGAIN. Do not embrace works, the law, tradition, ceremony as a way of salvation – trust only in Christ by Grace through Faith. Stay Free, never go back to slavery. Paul is SHOCKING in these verses and says things that even solid Christians react to. He talks about those who walk away from Christ, those who determine to be saved their own way. YET ALSO celebrates the uniqueness of life in the Spirit, where we trust in Christ and live a life of loving works.
