It is hard to imagine how Paul could say more about how utterly powerless human achievements are for justification before God, and how effectual the cross of Jesus Christ is to make us right with God. He says it all here. Human merit counts for nothing before God. The cross of Christ is the only sufficient merit for our salvation. Here at the end of Galatians, if we are still clinging to our goodness, this passage will strip us bare. And if we are aware that we need a Savior, this passage offers us Christ who died for our sins to give us everything.

When we walk in step with the Holy Spirit and follow him into the household of faith, we bring his love, we genuinely help others, and we sow seeds of goodness that will bring a gracious and glorious return. The exhortation for us today is to enter the congregation in the freedom of Christ, filled with the Spirit, to serve one another through love.

The message of Galatians has been that we are justified before God by the merits of Christ that we receive by faith, and not by our merit achieved by keeping the law. Now we hear that we are made holy by walking in the Spirt who we have also received by faith. The grace that sent Christ to the cross to save us from our sins is the grace that sent the Holy Spirit into our hearts to make us holy like Christ. Let’s respond to this grace by faith and keep in step with the Spirit.

Jason Miller preaches from Galations 3:26-4:11. Paul continues to defend the gospel of justification by faith in Christ alone by listing the many benefits that believers receive in Jesus. Faith in Christ unites us with His death and resurrection, and with all believers despite our external differences. God sent Jesus at just the right time to accomplish the redemption and adoption of His people. God sends his Holy Spirit into our hearts to confirm our relationship to the Father. With all these blessings available to us, why would we turn back to legalistic religious performance to win God’s favor?

Bill Maynard preaches from Galatians 3:1-14. Paul reproves the Galatian Christians for trusting in human works to try and perfect their salvation. He reveals the folly of this “works righteousness” by drawing on their own experience of being saved by grace through faith and then by unpacking Old Testament teachings about Abraham and the Law itself. He emphasizes the centrality of the Cross as God’s plan and means for salvation.

Paul’s concern in Galatians is that Christians stay in step with the truth of the gospel. This means to embrace the gospel as truth, believe in it for salvation, and live the new life that flows from its impact on the heart. In this passage, Paul remains in step with the gospel by defending it, even when doing so meant confrontation and conflict. Peter, on the other hand, had to be corrected because his conduct was not in step with the gospel. The exhortation for us is to know the gospel, let it change us at the heart level, and then walk consistent with its truth.

In this section of Galatians Paul continues to refute the false teachers who accused him of preaching a gospel that was different from the one preached by the other apostles. In the end, Paul shows that he and the other apostle agreed on the gospel of God’s grace and faith in Christ for salvation, and that they joined hands in taking that gospel to Jews and non-Jews alike. Today, we rejoice that the one true gospel of Jesus Christ has been protected and preserved for the sake of Christ’s glory and the good of our souls. Let’s press on in the freedom of Christ’s grace and bear its fruit in our lives.

The gospel is not from man in any way, it is from God in every way. The gospel’s origin, accomplishments, revelation to us, and application to our hearts are all from God. This means it is truly the power of God to save us from our sins and for a right relationship with him. What do we gain from knowing the gospel is from God and not from man? Confidence that the gospel is true, trust in the finished work of Christ, assurance of our salvation, awakening in love and gratitude to God, and new energy to live for his glory.

The opening of Paul’s letter to the Galatians gets right to the point. Paul is upset that some people are adding human works and merit to the gospel of God’s grace and justification by faith. He is concerned that this “different gospel”— which is no gospel— is being taught in the churches and embraced by Christians. This false gospel will do damage to the souls of these Christians, as it renders the death of Christ meaningless. With this concern, Paul launched into this letter to clarify the gospel of Christ, refute the false teachers, and rescue the churches from danger. Today, we give our attention to this letter and heed the call to keep the gospel clear in our minds so it will transform our hearts for the glory of God.

The council in Jerusalem confirmed the truth of the gospel that we are saved by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and that this salvation is applied to us through faith in him. A pure gospel is the power to save, the joy of our hearts, the unity of the church, and the message for the world. We owe our lives to the Holy Spirit’s work in this council to keep the gospel pure.

Paul and Barnabas have great concern for the disciples recently converted to Christ. They know that these followers of Jesus will face regular and varied trials, temptations, and tribulations throughout their time on earth. To ensure that the disciples are not surprised or deterred in the faith, Paul and Barnabas give them the direct message that tribulations will come, and the hope-filled promise that they will enter the kingdom of God. May the Lord strengthen our hearts today with these words.
