14 Freedom in Christ Not Legalism Galatians 5’1–6 

AM 08 March 2026 Introduction Freedom is one of the most precious words in the Christian vocabulary—and one of the most misunderstood. Every heart longs for it. The world cries for freedom from oppression, from guilt, from authority. But the Bible tells us that true freedom is not found in casting off all restraint; it is found only in belonging to Jesus Christ. That is the burden of Paul’s letter to the Galatians.

From Abraham onward, God pledged blessing to His people, not because they earned it, but…

Because the very heart of the gospel was under attack. The churches of Galatia—likely a group of young congregations in what…
