Uncompromised Community
Galatians 5:26-6:5. Our selfishness and pride makes us blind to our need of others and to others’ needs. Spirit-filled living means seeing your need of others and meeting others’ needs. If everyone bears one another’s burdens, everyone’s burdens get beared (*borne).
From Series: "Uncompromising: A Series in Galatians"
Our culture has sold us the lie that to truly love someone you must accept them completely, even if it means compromising your own beliefs. Inclusivity is everything, even if it means denying Jesus' exclusivity. And Paul takes this notion head-on in his letter to the Galatians. He defends faith in Jesus as the only way to be justified before God, and as the true fulfillment of the Jewish faith. In a word, his gospel is uncompromising.
