Confronting Legalism, Part 2

July 1, 2015
The Protestant theologian Frances Schaeffer is quoted saying, “The Truth demands confrontation; loving confrontation, but confrontation nevertheless.” The Apostle Paul is confronting the legalism that has infiltrated the regional churches of Galatia. He is fighting against those who would pervert the Gospel of Grace with the works of the Law. Pastor Jeff is in Galatians 5 with the second half of Confronting Legalism.

When someone makes a promise to you, do you find it difficult to believe them? Is it because belief means to trust? There are many that don’t want to believe in God because they have trust issues.

This has been an intersting lesson from Galatians 4. The Apostle Paul shed light on a typology in the Old Testament with Sarah and Abraham representing the Promise of Eternal Life through a promised Son.

There is a syaing that the Old Testament is a picture of a New Testament principle. Paul draws on this concept as he uses the old Jerusalem as a sign of living under the Law, in comparison to the new Jerusalem in Heaven where those who believe in Christ are citizens. Paul was a master at the Old Testament, and God used him to bring a clear teaching of grace. Join Pastor Jeff for the second half of a message called, "Whos Your Mother?"
