Through most of his letter to the churches in Galatia, but especially in chapters 3 and 4, the Apostle Paul has contended for the true and glorious doctrine of God's sovereign grace to sinners apart from any works of the Law (not to mention any other works we may deem "good"). The apostle's inspired reasoning is inescapable. You cannot have it both ways: either you are who you are by grace or you are not, for grace must be grace alone. There can be no amalgam of grace and works of any kind for your justification. (Romans 11:6) So, beginning in chapter 5, The apostle begins to explain what this glorious truth means. He explains how this revelation ought to influence what we do and how we live. That is, there are implications to this theology of sovereign grace so powerfully declared. Theology always influences ones manner of life and ethics either for good or evil. This link is inescapable. So lest there be any confusion, the apostle lays out the implications and ethics of the gospel of sovereign grace. What is the effect in your life and faith? To what extent has the truth of sovereign grace set you free to serve the Lord with love and thanksgiving? The starting point must be a firm stand in the blood-won liberty through Christ alone. – Pastor Schlegel
