WE

Here’s what we can do, lets do it together.

Galatians 1 (NLT)

This letter is from Paul, an apostle. I was not appointed by any group of people or any human authority, but by Jesus Christ himself and by God the Father, who raised Jesus from the dead.

All the brothers and sisters here join me in sending this letter to the churches of Galatia.

May God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. Jesus gave his life for our sins, just as God our Father planned, in order to rescue us from this evil world in which we live. All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.

I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth concerning Christ.

Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed.

ok we highlighted some things, lets go explain it now…

What does this mean for me?

I dont need to work so hard or worry about my eternity, nor my value, becuase Jesus paid for it

Worry Less - Rest More

Im free from my sin because the debt is paid

practice living free of the habits that made up our life apart from Christ

Worship God because he saved us!

Sin Less - Worship More
