Description

A sermon by Pastor Tim Vusik from Galatians 6:1-5

The churches of Galatia were in great danger of believing that Christ was not enough - that His work on the cross and His resurrection was not sufficient to make one right with God. When Christ alone is not the sole focus, instead of being a grace-saturated community, the church becomes laced with legalism, which always results in competition, strife, discord, and envy (5:26). So, to address this issue in the church, Paul pens 6:1-5, describing the characteristics of a burden-bearing disciple.

Theme: A burden-bearing disciple relies on the Spirit to walk humbly and love diligently.

A burden-bearing disciple:

1. Walks in Step With the Spirit (1a)
2. Restores Others Caringly and Cautiously (1b)
3. Loves Others Diligently Through Various Struggles (2)
4. Understands His Own Condition (3)
5. Recognizes His Own Accountability (4-5)
