Beware of religious works | Galatians 5:3 | Guided Bible Meditation

Why Are You Still Not Listening | Galatians 5:7 | Guided Bible Meditation

Meditation on those that Paul is writing to who have completely ignored the gospel and instead pursued a works based faith that only leads to destruction and enslavement to an impossible standard. Galatians 5:7 You were running well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?

BEWARE Your Religious Station | Galatians 5:6 | Guided Bible Meditation

Meditation on how the only right standing we have is through the blood of Jesus Christ. You can be a part of the right church, you can have the right credentials, you can even have the right theology, but without Christ they amount to nothing. Likewise, our status of being in the wrong club, having the wrong credentials, and having wrong theology means nothing. It's Christ or nothing. Galatians 5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love.

The Holy Spirit give us HOPE | Galatians 5:5 | Guided Bible Meditation

Meditation on how the Spirit is our only hope at righteousness. Without God working in our inner being, we are doomed to repeat our sins over and over again without repentance. Galatians 5:5 For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness.

Beware of Legalism | Galatians 5:4 | Guided Bible Meditation

Meditation on how God's law can't be used as a bludgeon. Works will not save us because no one can keep the law. Galatians 5:4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.

Beware of religious works | Galatians 5:3 | Guided Bible Meditation

Our works do not save us. If we think a religious act or acts is the key to life and life eternal, we are then obligated to keep every part of God's law and will be judged accordingly. Meditate on how religion matters less than a relationship with Jesus. Galatians 5:3 I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law.
