Galatians 2, Justified freely; Law vs. Grace; No one can keep the Law; Peter ...Valley Bible Fellowship
Galatians Chapter 2, We are justified freely; Law vs. Grace; Freedom in Christ or Slaves; No one can keep the Law; Peter was opposed to his face; Peter was wrong again; Peter was not the 1st. Pope; Peter was not in Rome; Public critique/rebuke
Sin in the Church is a big deal. We are commanded to deal with it because unchecked sin has consequences. There are specific guidelines that the Bible gives us to follow.
The Powerpoint outlines for this series of lessons on The Great Commission were downloaded from the Duluth, GA Church of Christ website at: http://www.churchofchristduluthga.org/sermons.php
This is a Sunday School lesson per ETB (Southern Baptist curriculum) for (covering) part of the Lord Jesus' sermon on the mount, regarding how, as people within His kingdom, we can go far beyond the law and show extreme love and conformity to what God has had in mind all along: for us to become like Him (His Son, Jesus Christ). In so doing (following Him and allowing Him to live thru us), we become peacemakers, will be called sons of God, causing people's heads to turn upward and to give our God the credit and honor for what He alone could do in our new-born lives.
The Bible stands alone as an incredible ancient book. It is forcefully substantiated by thousands of ancient copies and thousands of fulfilled prophecies. It has always been powerful.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. Colossians 3:22–4:1
Slaves, in all things obey those who are your
masters on earth, not with external service, as
those who merely please men, but with
sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. Whatever
you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord
rather than for men, knowing that from the
Lord you will receive the reward of the
inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you
serve. For he who does wrong will receive the
consequences of the wrong
3. which he has done, and that without
partiality. Masters, grant to your slaves justice
and fairness, knowing that you too have a
Master in heaven.
5. Question of slavery
85% of population were slaves
Christianity was considered a slave religion
Does this passage endorse slavery?
6. Give an answer to every man
Bronze age ended nearly 1,000 before this was
written.
Out of context
Agenda driven
7. Jesus’ Ministry Statement
The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He
has anointed Me to preach good news to the
poor. He has sent Me to proclaim freedom to
the captives and recovery of sight to the blind,
to set free the oppressed, to proclaim the year
of the Lord’s favor.
Luke 4:18–19
8. A true statement of equality
a renewal in which there is no distinction
between Greek and Jew, … slave and freeman,
but Christ is all, and in all.
Colossians 3:11
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is
neither slave nor free man, there is neither
male nor female; for you are all one in Christ
Jesus.
Galatians 3:28
9. Unity
Equality 1 Corinthians 7:21 Were you
called while a slave? Do not
worry about it; but if you are
able also to become free,
rather do that.
For by one Spirit we
were all baptized into
one body, whether
Jews or Greeks,
whether slaves or
free, and we were all
made to drink of
one Spirit.
1 Cor. 12:13
10. Spiritual Equality
Philemon- treat as a beloved brother in the flesh
and in the Lord
Paul- Andronicus and Urbanus (common slave
names) called “kinsman,” “fellow prisoner,”
and “fellow worker”
11. 0pen condemnation
…We also know that the law is made not for
the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels,
the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and
irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or
mothers, for murderers, for the sexually
immoral, for those practicing homosexuality,
for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and
for whatever else is contrary to the sound
doctrine
1 Timothy 1:9-10 NIV
15. 1. Obey those in authority
2. Just don’t go through the motions
3. Don’t kiss up
4. Give it your best effort as a
service to God
For those of who
work
Slaves, in all things obey those who are
your masters on earth, not with external
service, as those who merely please men,
but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.
16. Our work ethic isn’t subjective
Servants, be submissive
to your masters with all
respect, not only to
those who are good and
gentle, but also to those
who are unreasonable.
1 Peter 2:18
Those who have
believers as their
masters must not be
disrespectful to them
because they are
brethren, but must
serve them all the
more, because those
who partake of the
benefit are believers
and beloved.
1 Timothy 6:2
17. Why?
Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for
the Lord rather than for men, knowing that
from the Lord you will receive the reward of
the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you
serve.
1. You work for Jesus
2. He pays with an inheritance
18. Payday
…each man’s work will become evident; for
the day will show it because it is to be
revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test
the quality of each man’s work. If any man’s
work which he has built on it remains, he will
receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned
up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be
saved, yet so as through fire.
1 Corinthians 3:13–15
19. Good for the goose
Masters, grant to your slaves justice and
fairness, knowing that you too have a Master
in heaven.
1. Justice not under Roman law
2. Fairness
20. Good for the gander
With good will render service, as to the Lord,
and not to men, knowing that whatever good
thing each one does, this he will receive back
from the Lord, whether slave or free. And
masters, do the same things to them, and give
up threatening, knowing that both their
Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no
partiality with Him.
Ephesians 6:7–9
