Galatians-22: How To Use Your Freedom (Galatians 5:13-16)

BIG IDEA: The ruling principle of Christian freedom is always love. 1) What you’ve been called to (Gospel freedom; a freedom that comes through the gospel). (v.13a) 2) Why you’ve been called to it (to serve one another through love— other Christians most specifically, but all people ultimately). (v.13b-15) 3) How you’ve been called to live it out (by walking in dependence on the indwelling Holy Spirit to motivate, guide and empower you).

Galatians-21: Obeying The Truth (Galatians 5:7-12)

(v.7) 2) They are not of God. (v.8) 3) They contaminate the church. (v.9) 4) They will be judged. (v.10) 5) They persecute true teachers. (v.11a) 6) They obscure the offense of the cross. (v.11b)  "This Is My Father's World" performed by Eric Wyse, courtesy Martingale Music.

Galatians-20: The Freedom to Live Rightly (Galatians 5:1-6)

BIG IDEA: For freedom Christ has set us free. *Three features of freedom: 1) The conferring of freedom. (v.1a) 2) The commitment to freedom. (v.1b-4) 3) The conclusion of freedom. (v.5,6) "This Is My Father's World" performed by Eric Wyse, courtesy Martingale Music.

Galatians-19: Spiritual Isaacs (Galatians 4:21-31)

BIG IDEA: You are spiritual Isaacs! *Three distinctions the law illustrates about spiritual Isaacs: 1) The Reality: Those of the Covenant of promise are born into freedom (not slavery). (v.21-26) 2) The Reason: Those of the Covenant of promise are born according to the Spirit (not according to the flesh). (v.27-28) 3) The Result: Those of the Covenant of promise are born as sure heirs (not as cast outs). (v.29-31) "This Is My Father's World" performed by Eric Wyse, courtesy Martingale Music.
