I’d like to say that the church needs another vision of God. Not just of His love, but the fact that our God is a holy God, a righteous God, and He moves in judgment. And you know, He never asked me to apologize for Him. I don’t intend to apologize for Him. Take it or leave it. You can shut your eyes, put your head down in the sand like an ostrich is supposed to do, but every ostrich has got more sense than that. But, my friend, you can’t destroy what the Word of God says. God will punish sin. He says He will. But He loves you, friend. He’ll save you. But you know, you’ll have to come His way. And Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, but by Me.”
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.
