Put right with God (10:30am), Galatians 3:1-14

We need often to come back to the cross and be gripped by the love of God and then allow that love to direct and motivate our living.

This is why as a spiritual father my concern is to help those who have begun this journey of faith to continue on that journey and to do it focussed on Jesus and his cross.

To that extent I teach the Bible and encourage people to read it for themselves, we run homegroups, we run courses, we encourage prayer and so on. If you are a Christian are you continuing and are you continuing in the grace of God rather than by your own efforts?

Paul asked this question, “Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard?” That is did they come to faith by God’s action or their own efforts? The answer is by God’s work and the point is then continue that way – then we’re sucking diesel.
