Weekly Bulletin: 2023-11-01
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose” (Galatians 2:20–21).
As Paul continues in his letter to the churches in Galatia, he presses further into the gospel by explaining its riches and wonders, chief among which is the life that it gives us through the death of God’s Son. The gospel’s hope and glory aren’t found in making bad people better but in bringing the dead back to life. Without Christ, we’re dead; but in Christ, we live unto God.
Join us this Sunday, November 5 at 10 a.m. as, Lord willing, I’ll be bringing another sermon from the book of Galatians as we continue looking at why there is “No Other Gospel” 🙌
Blessings 🙏 Pastor Brad
