Before you were a believer in Christ, you were a slave to sin. It held you, and it mastered you. But, as a believer, Christ has freed you from that bondage. He set you free so that you’d live in His freedom. Today, Pastor John will encourage you to stand firm in this freedom that Christ has given you. Don’t fall back into legalism to the law or back into sin. Neither of these brings life. Stand firm and resolute in Christ. No method of human skill or ability that can redeem you from sin! It is only through faith in Him. Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of Galatians chapter 5 as he begins his message Don’t Fall From Grace.
Scripture
Galatians 5:1 - 12
5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. 2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing. 3 And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law. 4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. 5 For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. 6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love. 7 You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you. 9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump. 10 I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is. 11 And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? Then the offense of the cross has ceased. 12 I could wish that those who trouble you would even cut themselves off!
