“Stay On Grace, Not Law”
Thursday, May 29, 2025Key Verse
“Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace” (Galatians 5:4).
Text —Galatians 5:1-8
Message
Apostle Paul emphasized the transformative power of grace in his letter to the Galatians. He declared that righteousness comes not through adherence to the law but through faith alone. By God’s grace, we are no longer bound by legalistic requirements. Instead, we live in the freedom granted by grace. This grace is not earned; it is freely given to us by God. When we stay focused on grace, we recognize that our salvation rests on Christ’s sacrifice, not our own efforts. The Scripture tells us in Galatians 2:21, “I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.”
Shift your focus from legalism to grace. The Bible says that we are saved by grace through faith. Friend, if you have been saved, help to extend God’s grace to others. However, grace is not a license to sin; rather, it empowers us to live righteously, motivated by love and gratitude.
