In Galatians 2, Paul reminds us that we are justified by faith in Jesus Christ, not by religious effort, good behavior, church attendance, or the approval of others. Grace is not something we earn. It is a gift Christ has already purchased for us.
In this message, we explore:
• Why we must protect the truth of the gospel
• How people-pleasing can lead us away from conviction
• What it means to be justified by faith
• Why obedience is a response to grace, not a payment for it
• How the old life dies so Christ can live through us
• Why we must stop trying to earn what Jesus already paid for
Paul writes:
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.”
Galatians 2:20
The question is not simply whether we wear the name “Christian.” The question is whether Christ is truly living through us.
Lay down the performance.
Lay down the comparison.
Lay down the people-pleasing.
Come back to the grace of Jesus Christ.
