Those Foolish Galatians!
December 7th, 2007 by tempe
This sermon was preached at Midlane Park Presbyterian Church on December 2, 2007. This was also a Lord’s Day in which the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper was observed. The text for the sermon is Galatians 3:1-5, one of my favorite passages of the Apostle Paul.
“You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified? 2 This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith? 3 Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh? 4 Did you suffer so many things in vain–if indeed it was in vain? 5 So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?”
