Galatians 6:11-18While boasting about ourselves is a sin, but not all boasting is.  The apostle Paul contrasts sinful boasting with God-glorying, Christ-exalting boasting.

Galatians 6:7-10Using a farming metaphor, we’re reminded that we should not deceive ourselves into thinking we can sin with impunity and never face any consequences.  

Galatians 6:1-6

We don’t walk in the Spirit alone, as if the Christian life is just about you and God and no one else; it’s to be done within Christian community, the church.  

Galatians 5:16-26 There’s a war taking place inside of us, a battle between the Spirit of God and our sinful flesh. It’s a war Christians daily engage in as we seek to put off our old selves and put on Christ.
