Galatians 3:13 // Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”
- You are redeemed
- Ways we confuse God’s gifts:
- Pride
- We don’t feel worthy
- It sounds too good to be true
Galatians 3:23-25 // Before the coming of this faith, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until the faith that was to come would be revealed. So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
- paidagōgos - guardian or tutor
- Law doesn’t:
- Save
- Bring life
- Show warmth of love
- Ways we live like law will save us:
- Hating sinful people for being sinful
- Bragging about our “goodness”
- Majoring on the minors
- Stop worrying about how your neighbor is living and start living like you believe God loves you!
Galatians 3:26 // So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith
