6 Positives From The Book Of Galatians, 1

~ Seek God’s Approval Rather than Man’s ~

 

Series Introduction  ~  There are six chapters in the Paul’s letter to the church at Galatia.  In this series we look at one of the positive statements directed to believers from each of the chapters. 

 

Scripture  ~  “I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.  But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.  As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.

 

“For do I now persuade men, or God?  Or do I seek to please men?  For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ” (Galatians 1:6-10).

 

Additional Scripture  ~  The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe” (Proverbs 29:25).

 

The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that” (Proverb 29:25 msg).

 

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7).
