God has His arms outstretched to a lost world and says, “If you’ll come My way.” And by the way this is His universe. He’s doing it His way. You may have a better way, but you don’t have a universe. He does. This is His. He makes the rules. And you’re going to have to come His way. He loves you. Oh, you can’t keep Him from loving you. Now it’s what you can do, you can’t keep the sun from shining, but you can get out of the sunshine. And by sin today—by being out of the will of God, turning your back on Him—you won’t experience the love of God. But if you will come to Him through Christ, He will save you. God is rich in mercy.
Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
