Galatians Chapter 6, I'd like to read verse 1 through to verse number 10, and we'll be looking at verse number 6 this morning. Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.… Continue reading...

Galatians 6:1-5 reads, "Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in the spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. For each one shall bear his own load."

Let us pray. Our Lord, is there not… Continue reading...

Before we read our passage, I'd want to, I guess ask a question to begin with, maybe to to lead us in.

We can try this. Maybe raise your hand if you know what it is to feel outraged and angry.

Oh, there we go. I thought that might be the case.

Now, you don't have to tell me the answer to this question, but think of it in your own mind. What gets you angry? What gets you really fired up?

Is it when someone cuts you off in traffic? Is that what what gets you angry? Or is it when someone disrespects you in public, or… Continue reading...

John chapter 2, and we'll read the first 12 verses. On the third day, there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine." Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come." His mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it."

Now there were set there six water pots of stone, according to the manner of purific… Continue reading...

I suspect you've had this experience. You've been going about your day, and you've found perhaps a cafe that serves the best coffee you've ever had. Or maybe you're listening to music in the car, and you find a song, and you're like, "This is just the best song." Or this one happens to me all the time, where you're reading a book, and you go, "This book is fantastic."

And what do you do when that happens? Well, immediately, you go and you tell all your friends, or at least you tell one or two of them. And you say, "… Continue reading...

We're looking together at Galatians chapter number 5. I would like to read verse 16-26 and our focus will be on verse 24-26 this morning. Galatians chapter number 5, verse number 16: "I say then, walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh. And these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law."

Now the works of the flesh are e… Continue reading...

Galatians Chapter 5:22-23: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law."

In Chapter 5, we have been considering the gospel—the true gospel of Christ—that brings true freedom. It brings the sinner out of a life of bondage, out from under the condemnation and guilt of the law, into the life of the Spirit. A life which begins and is marked by an internal warfare where the Spirit lusts against the flesh, and the flesh against the … Continue reading...
