Further Meditation on the Law of Life vs. the Law of Sin and Death . Condemnation is the main way that sin has its hold on us. We are not talking about condemnation from the wrath of God (that was taken care of by the blood of Jesus in the heavens in Romans 3). Condemnation in […]

People who fully embrace frontloaded works, backloaded works, or Galatian error will accuse you of a license to sin when you speak about Christ being the reality of the Christian life. In place of Jesus Christ, they hear the words “sin, adultery, fornication, murder, theft.” (What are you saying I can just lie and steal and do whatever I want?)

Msg 1 Obeying Truth Rather than Following Men Gal 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) Here Paul is already distinguishing himself from the people that are influencing the churches in Galatia. The people that are influencing them are much about perception and man’s authority and man’s stamp of approval. “He’s associated with James therefore I should
It is really complex, but again, this just has to be distinguished from Israel’s New Covenant. That is a covenant made with them. God didn’t make a covenant with us. There are no terms. By faith we’re baptized into Christ. There’s no obligation on us. We’ve been crucified with Christ, and now it’s no longer

I want to talk about recognizing New Testament ministers — genuine stewards. Understanding God’s economy is incredibly profound — it has truly changed my view of the Bible. Knowing what God is doing has set me on a different path to reveal Christ as the center. Christ is everything. God’s intention is not to require
