Our natural way of thinking is often quite detrimental. We naturally think that we can fix our own problems. If you feel like your life is in disarray, you get organized. If you don’t like the way you look, you start running or working out. However, in our attempt to be right with God and solve the breakdown of our relationship with him, our efforts actually make things worse. We can't make it right. Our striving is often the biggest hurdle to us experiencing his grace. Galatians 2:15-21 describes the good news that we are justified ("made righteous") by God's grace and not our works. In this sermon, we explore how the Gospel leads us to the freedom of not needing to prove ourselves.
Notes:
1) Free from Our Endless Searching
- To Prove Ourselves
- To Be Accepted
2) Free to Truly Live
