Paul’s lesson on sin teaches us that we must first be conscious of it and understand our accountability. Then we can begin to repent and be made righteous in God’s eyes. 

The blessings from God could only come through God’s unchanging promises.  Paul teaches the Galatians that believers are justified by Jesus alone, not by works of the law. 

Tonight we see how all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. But the good news is we are all redeemed and made righteous through the work of Jesus Christ. 

In chapter 3 of Galatians, Paul is flabbergasted that people of God have abandoned the gospel of God for a false gospel. He makes the case that they must never leave their first love. By re-establishing the gospel of Christ, he takes aim to call God’s people back to a life of grace and not of works.  

Today we see Paul show us what it means to die to ourselves and live for Christ. His faith in action is a great example for us to follow as we look to make Jesus’ name known.

Romans 2 is written to reprimand the Jews that living by the law and circumcision is not a badge of righteousness to God. Paul contends that living by rules and regulations only brings about judgment and condemnation. The case made in the book of Romans makes the case that a true believer is one that is qualified by circumcision of the heart by the Spirit of God. This removes all diplomatic immunity for Christians and throttles our need for Christ’s Divine Immunity.

Tonight, Paul shows us God’s judgment is based on truth. With that knowledge we either repent and look to God for salvation or we distort the truth and show contempt for his kindness. With Paul there is no middle ground

The gospel we have received from Christ is that we have been saved by grace. We are shaped and molded by God’s goodness and grace. Therefore, grace becomes the full authority and treasure of our lives. Our lives become the living testimony of our transformation in Him.

Today we learn in Paul’s letter to the Galatians the message of salvation through Jesus is the perfect message. Nothing can be added or taken away because it is perfect.

In Romans 1, Paul makes a case that those who have sinned and do not repent will face God's wrath. He urges believers to flee from this wrath by turning to God in faith. This faith is based on God's authority and mercy, which is revealed in Jesus Christ. Through Christ, God offers not only forgiveness, but the eternal life designed by Him to all who believe.
