Freedom-Faith In Partnership with God - Galatians #12
What makes the Christian faith like no other? The good news of God’s grace is the bold claim that we are accepted by God not because we “follow the rules” or “fit the mold” but because Jesus gave his own life to rescue us. But many of us are still trying to earn God’s love with our performance rather than living in the freedom that Jesus has provided for us. In Galatians, Paul warns against the danger of religious systems that value people on grounds of accomplishment or status or cultural agreement. These things lock away our freedom in the futility of legalism, moral superiority and cultural arrogance. Focusing on either the racial/ethnic/cultural superiority or the moral successes of good works denies the gospel and divides Jesus’ followers. Join us as we explore how God offers us true freedom in Jesus and how the freedom of Christ transforms our hearts, our minds and lives.

Death That Leads to Life (Romans 8:12-14)
As Christians, we are debtors; not to the flesh, for it has never been our friend, but to the Spirit, who has given us life. This joyful obligation, as those who have received a precious gift, calls us to put sin to death -- to kill, or "mortify" it. This is a real battle that we must fight continually, but we do it not in our own strength, but in the strength of the very Spirit who gives us life.

Drifting
The gospel is a narrow way with ditches on both sides. On the one side is the ditch of legalism, on the other is the ditch of license. This week Pastor Kevin talked about the dangers of both and how to walk in confidence in the good of the gospel.
