1. Stand Strong in the Grace of God
Galatians 5: 1-6
1It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.  2Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you.
3And I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is under obligation to keep the whole Law.
4You have been severed from Christ, you who are seeking to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
5For we through the Spirit, by faith, are waiting for the hope of righteousness. .

1. Standing firm in grace is proper resistance to the entanglement of the law. Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Do everything in love. 1 Cor. 16:13-14
2. Mark My Words!!! Never throw freedom away. Never throw away the liberty we have in Christ for the bondage of keeping the law.
3. The only thing that could possibly give us human wretches value and standing in the mind of God is the acceptance and belief of the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ and Him crucified is all that counts.
