Galatians 5:1–4 KJV 1900
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. 2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. 4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
OCEAN OF GRACE
FREEDOM FROM WHAT
not freedom from sinful deeds
freedom from condemnation / sin imputed to us
CHRIST EFFECT
no effect
not when we fall into sin (majority of the body of Christ thinks this way)
trying to deserve favor
ONLY THING THAT MAKES CHRIST OF NO EFFECT TO US
mindset - doing right things / doing good brings you blessings from God
CROSS - Jesus got what we deserved / that we might get what He deserved
don’t do good/pray/read Word to be right with God / we do good/pray/read Word because we are right with God
sinful deeds vs. sin imputed
James 2:10 ESV
10 For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.
sin consciousness vs. righteousness consciousness
whatever you are conscious of you will manifest
not about trying harder
Galatians 2:21 KJV 1900
21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
living under the law
Hebrews 12:15–16 ESV
15 See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled; 16 that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal.
Sin
Know to do good and don’t do it
Whatever is not of faith
1Co 15:56
The law increases sin
Rom 5:20
Not a license to sin
The preaching that lawyers (those who preach on sin) think will stop sin actually increases sin.
Examples before the law
Abraham
Joseph
only thing that hold’s down sin is grace
repent - change your mind
God repented
Jesus ministry
sinners who received healing
