Guardian of the Universe- Gal 3:19-23
Pastor Larry continues his series in St Paul’s letter to the Galatians. And just what purpose does the Law serve? If we aren’t made right with God by keeping the Law, why is it there or why is it something for us to consider?
The Purpose of Christ’s Redemption- Gal 3:10-14
Now, tell me again: Why did Jesus have to die? This is a good, valid question that is asked my many people. The answer, as Pastor Larry explains in this sermon, is aligned with all that is written in the Old Testament about “God’s economy”.
Gospel Zeal- Gal 2:17-21
Do I have “zeal” for the Gospel? If not, it just may be that I don’t fully appreciate just how special, just how precious a thing the Gospel of Jesus really is.
Gospel Unity – Gal 2:11-16
Gospel Unity? Well, Pastor Larry explains why there is unity in the gospel message. Unity between Jews and non-Jews. Unity between religious and irreligious people.
One Gospel for All – Gal 2:6-10
St Paul sets forth and defends his Apostolic authority in this passage. He and the other apostles did not mutually negotiate what the gospel was. Rather as they compared was each was preaching, they saw that their messages were consistent or identical: One Gospel for all people.
The Gospel Defended- Gal 2:1-5
Pastor Larry continues in his Galatians series. In chapter 2, the Apostle Paul tells the Galatian believers how he went to Jerusalem to defend and confirm the true gospel; the gospel of free grace. That men- both Jews and gentiles -are accepted by God only as they express faith in the perfect life that Jesus lived.
God’s Pleasure! – Gal 1:14-25
One of the delightful experiences in life is to watch someone do or create something which gives them an extraordinary amount of pleasure. It is difficult to comprehend that God would get a great deal of “pleasure” from this or the other activity, but to think he gets it when he acts to change sinful humans into his servants, his children, his treasured possessions; this will blow your mind.
