God didn’t give the Law through Moses as a template for us to follow. Instead, it was meant to show us that we could never live up to those standards on our own. And that there would have to be another way to Him – faith in Christ Jesus. But now that we have Jesus, we no longer need the Law. For it has done its purpose in leading us to Jesus by showing us our failure. Now, we live in and from Jesus Christ.

The Apostle Paul understood what the Judaizer in Galatia did not. Hundreds of years before God made a covenant with Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai, He had made a covenant with Abraham and Jesus. A covenant that came into effect on the cross, giving us an inheritance in Christ that is greater than you can ever imagine. Pastor Ross teaches from Galatians 3: 15-18 and explains what we have received in the will.

Do you want to follow and obey God’s Law? Because if you do, you will be cursed. That is the Apostle Paul’s warning to the Galatians in chapter 3, where he reminds them that unless they are perfect, they are subject to all the curses of the Law. Fortunately, God has sent His Son, Jesus Christ, who became a curse for us that all might receive the promise of Abraham’s blessing – the Holy Spirit. And through faith in the Holy Spirit – life.

The way we look at our bodies governs how we treat ourselves and others. We all have a theology of the body - and so does Satan. We need God’s perspective. Anything other than His, is a perspective that leads to death. Sin has given us the ability to create a theology of the body apart from God. The body is an instrument of righteousness - it is made to be surrendered to God’s purposes. But God is the best caretaker of the body and surrender to his care is better than our care. In order to do that we need to accept our bodies as they are - because God does.

Have you considered Abraham? In Galatians 3: 6-9, the Apostle Paul argues that our justification is by faith and not by fulfilling the Law by appealing to the father of our faith – Abraham. He proves that Abraham was made righteous simply by his faith in God. Therefore, it only makes sense that to be included in this family, one must exercise the same faith. Which also allows us to become benefactors of the same covenant.

After chapter 11, the story of Genesis follows in detail the lives of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. But in chapter 38, there is an odd story of Judah and his daughter-in-law Tamar. But this story provides a contrast with the story of Joseph in chapter 39 to demonstrate the nature of God's grace. What we do, doesn't diminish who we are. Who we are, is the result of what God does.

Paul accuses the Galatian Christians of being foolish - unthinking and unreflecting - when it comes to understanding the freedom they had from the Law to earn God's approval. Life after salvation is the same as how salvation comes to be - trusting in Jesus' work.

There is a season for routines, procedures, safety and predictability but there is no life in ‘them’. There is only life and power found in a Person - in the Person of Jesus Christ. As those who are in Christ - we haven’t been made subject to rules of living but we have been made alive to God in everything we do, think and say. This lends itself to unpredictability, foiled routines, subsequent danger at times but most importantly joy. Pastor Robin explains in today’s message how Acts 3: 1-10 illustrates a life lived and led expectant of a good God.

When we struggle to accept that God has made us righteous in Him through Jesus’ work on the cross, we are frustrating and rejecting God’s grace. If you can’t accept yourself as you are today, then you believe that you have higher standards than God and that Jesus didn’t do enough. That frustrates God because if that could be the case, then Jesus wouldn’t have needed to die.

Walking in the Spirit. Abiding in Christ. Resting in Jesus. Christ living through me. All of these phrases point to the same concept, that Jesus Christ now lives in and through us as the dynamic power that animates us to live the Christian life. Or as the Apostle explained it to the Galatians, “Not I, but Christ.” Join Pastor Ross as he illustrates and explains what this incredible and often misunderstood concept means in practical terms.

If the most important question is, “Who is God?” Then the second most important question is, “Who am I?” The world around us is obsessed with trying to answer that question through identity politics, gender wars, sexuality, striving, and even religious effort. But to answer the question of who I am, we need to also understand what determines who I am. Pastor Ross reveals the powerful truth of Galatians 2 and verse 20 and what it tells us about God’s answer to our identity. And the good news is that you are likely not who you think you are.

Paul warns the church in the epistles against complaining and grumbling. In a society where complaints and voiced disagreement is encouraged and celebrated - sometimes Christians wonder whether they should speak up or not. However, complaints are all over the Psalms. It is common for psalmists to complain so what’s the key to living a life not dominated by complaint and disillusionment but also acknowledges human struggle. Psalm 67 presents a key phrase that helps the believer receive what is true about how to live a complaint free life.

The story of the death and return to life of Lazarus in John 11 is a surprising story of how we can deepen our relationship with Jesus through communion with Him, trusting Him, willingness to experience emotions and community. Guest speaker Peter Watt from Crossways to Life illustrates the values and leaves the viewers with an illustration that reminds us of our need for Jesus and other believers.

In writing to Timothy, the Apostle Paul says that there are those who want to be teachers of the Law, though they do not understand what they are saying, because they don’t understand that the Law is not for believers. This is the basis of the argument when Paul confronted Peter in Galatians 2. Why then did God give the Law? What was the purpose if not to provide a manual to live by? These questions are answered in this message by Pastor Ross.

Justification by faith and not by works of the law is one of the central and most important doctrines of the Christian faith. But why is so important? Pastor Ross explains what it means to be justified by grace and the glory of what it leads to by exploring what the Apostle Paul said to Peter when he confronted his hypocrisy in Galatians chapter 2.

God’s presence is a guarantee and a promise of the new covenant but what do we do when God feels distant? Or worse, when we feel indifferent to his presence with us. Psalm 42 is a description of our human experience of loneliness and despair in the life of faith. Pastor Robin describes God’s response in Psalm 42 as a new covenant privilege.

Like William Wallace, the great cry of every Christian ought to be “Freedom!” Because of Christ, we are freed from the Law, to live under grace. But what does it mean to be free from the Law? Don’t we still have some obligation to it? In this message, Pastor Ross explains what living under a Law system looks like compared to living under grace with Jesus.

One of the hardest things in life is to change what we think. The Apostle Paul faced a crisis after encountering Jesus on the road to Damascus. Would he hold on to everything he believed and was taught growing up? Or would he lay it all aside to follow Jesus. The revelation of Jesus Christ that included a revelation of his flesh, along with who Jesus is, who he was in Jesus, and who Jesus was in him forever changed him and the course of history.
