Message Notes:

​​For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. – Galatians 5v1 (ESV)

So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. – Galatians 5v1 (NLT)

Context for Galatians

  • Communities scattered in Galatia (portion of modern Turkey)
  • Churches are mixed with Jews and Gentiles
  • Grace is now being polluted by “Judaizers”
  • Salvation was being taught through partial effort and partial grace
  • 6 Say therefore to the people of Israel, ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slavery to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great acts of judgment. 7 I will take you to be my people, and I will be your God, and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. – Exodus 6v6-7 (ESV)

    Why do we exist as a church?

    • For people to believe to gospel
    • For people to belong to community
    • For people to become like Jesus
