Faith Working Through Love: Restore

The Galatians were biting and fighting one another. Probably not overt fights, but tribal conflicts that centered on “who’s righteous” and “who’s clean.” This was the fruit of their “conceit” or vainglory (weightless weight). Their treatment of each other was based on their view of themselves as superior or inferior.

Can you imagine sinning in that kind of culture of evaluation and judgment? A culture like that would not allow for confession or honesty from sinners saved by grace. That’s the context of Paul’s next statement, “if anyone is caught in any transgression.” How do we respond to brothers and sisters who are captured by sin?

Join us Sunday and consider how a culture of grace affects our battle against the flesh.
