Day Four -The Gospel of Grace Applied
Read Galatians 5:1- 6:18
The Judaizers seek to place the Galatians under bondage to their misused gospel of justification by law, but Paul warns them that law and grace are two contrary principles (Gal. 5:1-12). So far, Paul has been contrasting the liberty of faith with the legalism of law, but at this point he warns the Galatians of the opposite extreme of license or antinomianism (Gal. 5:13-6:10).
The Christian is not only set free from bondage of law, but they are also free from the bondage of sin because of the power of the indwelling Spirit.
Liberty is not an excuse to indulge in the deeds of the flesh; rather, it provides the privilege of bearing the fruit of the Spirit by walking in dependence upon Him. This letter closes with a contrast between the Judaizers- who are motivated by pride and desire to avoid persecution – and Paul, who has suffered for the true gospel, but boasts only of Christ (Gal. 6:11-18).

Over dit leesplan
Are you caught up in doing good deeds, but missing the gospel of faith? Are you feeling discouraged by faith based in works? Paul addresses this exact issue in Galatians and explores the foundational truth of the freedom of faith in Jesus Christ. Galatians offers a celebration of the freedom of grace and re-centers your focus on the law of love in God in three parts: the gospel of grace defined, the gospel of grace examined and the gospel of grace applied.
