Galatians 3:23–4:7

Big Idea: True spiritual life comes through the promise, not the law.
1. The promise comes apart from the law (3:15-18)
2. The law is not contradicted by the promise (3:19-21)
3. The promise comes through faith (3:22-25)
To add our works to the work of Christ makes a foolish contradiction of the gospel!
I. Consider your experience: You didn’t do anything to receive the Spirit, did you? Gal 3:1-6
II. Consider Abraham’s faith: Abraham was blessed on faith alone, and so are we. Gal 3:7-9
III. Consider the Alternative: If we rely on the mirror of the law to justify ourselves, we will condemn ourselves. Gal 3:10-14
Big Idea: You're made right with Jesus through faith in Jesus so live daily by trusting in Him and not your efforts
I. How can we be made right with God?
1. Not through the law!
2. Through simple heart-level reliance and trust in Jesus
3. By God counting Christ's
righteousness as ours.
II. How do we live in light of being made right with God?
1. Don't creep back into the law.
2. Live by faith in Jesus.
3. Magnify God's grace, don't nullify it.
