Are you trusting in Jesus or your good works? Dr. Stanley continues his examination of Paul’s letter to the Galatians as he guides us through Galatians 3:1-5.
Paul admonishes the Galatians for caving in to the Jewish doctrine of works. He asks how anyone who had witnessed Christ’s resurrection could still support legalism as a means to salvation? Wouldn’t that nullify the grace of God and the Spirit within us?
Dr. Stanley asks us the same question: Is God blessing us for trying to live up to self-imposed expectations, someone else’s standards, or the Ten Commandments? The answer is no. He points out that even Abraham couldn’t win God’s favor by doing the works of the law. Why? Because there was no law to keep. It was solely by his act of faith in taking God at His word.
Are you striving for sanctification by works or by faith?
