Aim to Restore

Speaker: Jason Whitley Series: Galatians (2018/2019) Scripture: Galatians 6:1–5

Having instructed us on the use of our freedom the Law to serve each other, Paul has just listed what this would look like in the church. This list is often called the Fruits of the Spirits. (Galatians 5:19) The absence of this lifestyle could also lead a negative set of characteristics as shown in Galatians 5:19-22,23). 

Paul also describes a path of restoration to be taken in the event the a member of the church falls into the foul sinful habits mentioned above.
