We begin this Lord's Day considering Paul's declaration of freedom to the Churches of Galatia. The letter to the Galatians has been called the Magna Carta of Christian liberty. It was one of the stones used by the Reformers in their sling to bring down the mighty Goliath of Rome during the Protestant Reformation as it enlightened the minds of sinners to the wonders of God's free grace in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul sets forth by inspiration of the Holy Spirit our liberty in Christ from the guilt/condemnation of sin, from the dominion/power of sin, from the fear of death, and from the ceremonies of the Old Testament. And it sets forth not only what we are set free from, but what we are set free unto. In Christ, we are set free to trust, love, and obey our gracious God. True freedom is not doing whatever we want to do (that is worldly bondage) but is doing what God calls/commands us to do. Our Christian liberty in Christ is not my will (and pleases me) but is thy will be done (and what pleases Thee). Anyone can do his/her own will, but only those who have been set free by Christ can do (and love to do) God's will.
