Galatians 5:6

Galatians 5:6

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

Have you ever had someone tell you that you need to do a certain thing to please God? This is the issue that the saints at Galatia are dealing with. They have the circumcision, that is religious leaders after the law coming in unto them and telling them that if they don’t get circumcised God will not bless them. This is just not a true statement, Paul teaches us otherwise when he tells us that whether you are or are not circumcised, you are not going to receive anything more from the Lord. The reason is because we are in Christ Jesus, and being in him makes us perfect and complete. The last thing is that the Lord will accept our faith which is an out working of our thoughts and concerns for others. We have liberty in Christ to be who we are; we need to use that liberty to minister to others in love.


Rejoicing in Grace,

Keith
