Nevertheless, anything that is a temptation to you must be filtered through your soul. “One day the chickens will come home to roost,” as the saying goes, that is explained in the last verse. “Walk by means of the Spirit”, i.e., utilize the enabling power of the filling of God the Holy Spirit to advance in the Spiritual life and produce Divine Good. He does not build on any natural capacity of ours at all. The OSN is classified as the Old Man because it originated in the Garden of Eden; it is older than anything else. Notice that is says in vs. 4, “you have fallen from grace.” The two power options are from the grace of God. He lived unto God inside the plan the Father had established for Him; all the way to the Cross, burial, resurrection and ascension. The filling of the Holy Spirit and Bible doctrine exist in your soul as a result of grace. Therefore, all inner temptations come from the Old Sin Nature. Read Scripture . 5. being experientially sanctified. So, the 2nd characteristic of “Christ formed in you,” is having, Therefore, the 3rd characteristic of “Christ formed in you” is faith that eagerly waits, or as we would say, having “, This rhetorical question is our 4th characteristic of “Christ formed in you”, which is what the Galatians were doing well at first, but had gotten sidetracked from by the Judaizers, that is, to “, Therefore, the 5th characteristic of “Christ formed in you” is to “. As we noted above, this is the 7th characteristic of Christ being formed in us, and is the crescendo of our spiritual lives. The believer must keep all the Law, if he would attempt to keep even one part of it. Therefore, when you stand firm in the freedom Christ won for you at the Cross, by exercising the two power options of God’s grace plan, and live consistently with faith-rest, while you keep on running the race of God’s plan for your life to the end, by also rejecting the false doctrines and hindrances to your spiritual walk, including any persecutions you may face, Christ will be formed in you and you will demonstrate the Christ-like nature, which brings maximum glorification to God while storing up rewards and blessings for yourself in both time and eternity. The key here is “have crucified.” In the Aorist tense it refers to a point of time when we believed. The book of Galatians is a Pauline Epistle (letter from Paul). Paul then wraps up this discourse in Chapter 5 in vs. 26 by reminding us of the detrimental effects sin has on our lives and the lives of others, so that we will avoid the temptations of our flesh and instead walk by means of the Holy Spirit to produce Divine Good. Galatians 5:4 “You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.” Galatians 5:22-23 “ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. The Old Sin Nature has a threefold essence: All believers continue to use their volition and continue to possess a Sin Nature after salvation. As the rest of this chapter tells us, there are two aspects of functioning in love. God does not ask us to do the things that are naturally easy for us—He only asks us to do the things that we are perfectly fit to do through His grace, and that is where the cross we must bear will always come.” (My Utmost for His Highest.) In other words, we have the freedom to sin, but we should avoid sin as much as we can. When you do, and grow in spiritual maturity, you will produce fruit, more fruit and much fruit. The second half of this passage is a warning to those who teach false doctrines. We are commanded to continually reside in our position of freedom. It is not a license to sin and please ourselves as we would, but rather the freedom of an unhindered life that is no longer bound to sin and Satan’s cosmic system. Since this list also depicts how our Lord walked, this list is the manifestation of the AGAPE Love characteristic of “Christ Formed in You,” and should be seen in our lives. So here we see that our salvation is by faith alone and not by works of the Law. This verse also serves as a transition to the third and final section of the letter. Jer 17:9; Mat 12:34‑35, 15:19; Mark 7:21‑23. 18But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. But primarily it is used figuratively, as it is here, to mean, “your life-style or conduct,” that is, your Experiential Sanctification. Gal 5:2-4, “2 Behold I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you. As you know, Jesus was born without sin and did not sin His entire life; He was impeccable. Here the responsibility we have is to “not turn our freedom into an opportunity for the flesh.”. But here Paul says, “Keep on standing firm” in your freedom. Comment. 5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. We walk in newness of life because we are in union with Christ. Titus 2:7-8, “In all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified, 8sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.”, 2 Tim 2:21, “Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.”. He never worried about what he would wear or eat, or where he would sleep. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. The believer is only pure and free from sin when he is inside God’s Power System (GPS), which means he is filled with the Holy Spirit and is cycling God’s Word through his soul. Gal 5:13, “For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.”. Paul warns us that there has to be a right environment before fruit will grow. Galatians 5 begins with a powerful statement, “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free” (vs.1). “Those who belong to Christ Jesus” is every member of the human race who has believed on the Person and Word of Jesus Christ, all believers. In comparison, CHRESTOTES primarily involves mildness or gentleness, a description of how you act towards others, where AGATHOSUNE speaks to moral perfection and holy righteousness, a description of the act itself. They are the manifestation of “walking by the Spirit” which is necessary to fulfill the 7th Characteristic of “Christ Formed in You,” which is “serving one another through AGAPE love.”. We can love our neighbors as ourselves not out of fear of the Law, but out of the freedom and love that the Cross of Jesus Christ has afforded us to be able to do. Therefore, we will lose the two power options God has given to us in grace: His Word in our soul and the filling of His Spirit, which the Cross of Jesus Christ has made available for us. Therefore, God tells us to “keep on standing firm,” meaning, continue to live by the Bible Doctrine in your soul, say no to the temptations of sin, and remain filled with the Holy Spirit. Freedom means that we have the right and ability to sin or to serve God and man in righteousness, whenever we desire to do so. Flesh, Liberty vs. Bondage A. Rom 14:17, “For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.”, 1 Thes 1:6, “You also became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation with the joy of the Holy Spirit.”, Beyreuther also notes: “It is no accident that the words appear particularly where there is express mention of the eschatological fulfillment in Christ, of being in Him, and of hope in Him.” Therefore, joy is the way believers view the present in light of God’s plan for the future.” (Complete Biblical Library Greek-English Dictionary). “Troubling” is the Present, Active Participle of the Verb ANASTATOO, αναστατοω that means, “drive from one’s home, to stir up, unsettle, excite, agitate, or incite a revolt.” It is used in regard to stirring up or exciting people to sedition from a nation, Acts 21:23. The sixth manifestation of AGAPE love is: Faithfulness / Faith, which is from PISTIS, πιστις that can mean, “Faith, trust, trustworthiness, reliability; confidence, assurance, conviction; belief, or even Bible doctrine.” It denotes the trust one has in another, but it also indicates the trustworthiness, or reliability of someone, as it does here. I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all. Cleansing here is analogous to the application of 1 John 1:9 as a result of changing your mind away from sin and then adjusting to the justice of God where in grace you are cleansed from your sins experientially, known and unknown, when you confess them to God the Father. This was all possible because He was constantly filled with the Word and God the Holy Spirit. Paul reminds that those who are trying to be justified by obedience to the law have alienated themselves from Christ and have fallen from grace. So now we will now explore the “Christ-like” characteristic of AGAPE Love through its nine manifestations that are the “Fruit of the Spirit.” Remember that “Christ being formed in you” is not something you do on you own, through your own human power and resources, but is the inter-working of God’s Word and the Filling of the Holy Spirit within your soul. This phrase does not mean we have taken some action(s) to make ourselves stop responding to the temptations of the world and our Sin Natures. Both “raised,” SUNEGEIRO, and “seated,” SUGKATHIZO are in the Aorist tense which views the entirety of the action. Because we receive experiential forgiveness and cleansing of both sins of cognizance and ignorance, we see the grace of God in action. That is why the Rebound technique, 1 John 1:9, is the first Problem Solving Device designed to recover from the explosion resulting from pulling the pin of the grenade. The second category is directed outward or neighbor-ward, towards man, directed toward other members of the human race: patience, kindness and goodness. The fact that we can walk in newness of life means that everything we have in this unique Church Age never existed before in the Old Testament. By virtue of being in union with Christ, this was done for us at the moment we believed. Do not let the things and issues of this world sidetrack you from your daily walk with God. The use of the word “fruit” here, instead of “works,” is due to the conception of the Christian life as the product of a new and divine life implanted in the believer. Will you yield to Him and let Him work.” (Weirsbe, Bible Exposition Commentary – Bible Exposition Commentary – Be Free (Galatians).). This chapter contains a discussion about circumcision and the allegory of the "Fruit of the Holy Spirit". The word is formed from the adjective AGATHOS, meaning “good,” plus the suffix SUNE which denotes quality. As believers we’re all born of the Holy Spirit of God to be free. This involves application of the Word, prayer, worship, praise, and fellowship with God’s people. The Biblical documentation of the Old Sin Nature is found in Rom 5:12, “Therefore, just as through one man (Adam), sin (the sin nature) entered into the world, and (spiritual) death through (the) sin (nature), so (spiritual) death spread to the entire human race because all sinned (when Adam sinned).”. 7 Aug 2013. In many ways, Galatians 5:1 is a great summary of everything Paul wanted the Galatians to understand: Christ has liberated us to be free. 1 John 1:8 tells us we continue to possess the Old Sin Nature. Walking in the light is compatible with the status quo of being in the light. Read in full These summaries are no substitute for the real thing! He is referring to the incident that is recorded in Acts 9:3-7 that caused him to stop persecuting Christians and instead become a believer. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law. Eph 2:6, “And raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.”. This command is, as is Gal 5:16, a reference to Experiential Sanctification. Adam’s volition was a perfect instrument. With this right kind of balance in your soul regarding yourself and others, you are then able to “show tolerance for others.”. You see you can lose this freedom experientially by entering into sin and Satan’s cosmic system. There is no effective function of good in our lives or effective Christian service apart from the filling of the Holy Spirit, Gal 5:22f; Eph 5:18f. As a result, you bring maximum glorification to God and will receive rewards and blessings for both time and eternity. This forgiveness is not for salvation, but for our experiential sanctification and fellowship with God in our daily walk with Him. “The Old Man” in the Greek is PALAIOS ANTHROPOS or “the ancient man.” It represents what is called the “old man” or “old self” in Rom 6:6; Eph 4:22; Col 3:9, which we call the Old Sin Nature. It, as all of these characteristics, is a quality of love, 1 Cor 13:4; Eph 4:2; Col 3:12. Its chief ingredient is self-sacrifice for the benefit of the one loved, John 3:16, and its other elements are listed in 1 Cor 13:4-8. Galatians 5 - NIV: It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Unit 3 Mechanically, Divine Good is produced by the “Balance of Residency” between the filling of the Holy Spirit and Bible doctrine applied from the soul, Heb 13:10. Eph 4:1-2, “Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, implore you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, 2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love.”. He was a Professor at Dallas Theological Seminary from 1934-1948, and later became the Dean and Professor of Semitics and OT at Talbot Theological Seminary from 1952 to 1975. Eph 4:1, and not “according to the course of this world,” Eph 2:2. and the Holy Spirit are fighting an internal battle for the mentality of our souls. And that is what sin does to man, it limits his abilities, while constantly constricting and controlling his every thought and action. Paul says, “it was for freedom,” (in all three phases of the Christian life), “that Christ has set us free”. In addition, our salvation is not based only on the grace of God, but also on the love of God as well, John 3:16. There was no baptism of the Spirit; no new spiritual species; no universal royal priesthood; no indwelling of the God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; and no 100% availability of Divine omnipotence. Paul states in vs. 8, that legalism is not from God, the One who called you and saved you by grace. It was not used in classical Greek and first appears in the Septuagint. Their own judgments will come upon their own head and God will deal with them in due time, Deut 32:35; Rom 12:19; Heb 10:30. 5 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Paul emulated his life after the life of Christ. Walking in newness of life carries far greater power and dynamics than any system of eschatology in all of human history. (13-15) And to walk in the Spirit, and not to fulfil the lusts of the flesh: the works of both are described. That is, His power of the Word, (Bible Doctrine), in your soul will be nullified or rendered powerless. Just as fruit cannot grow in every climate, so the fruit of the Spirit does not grow in every believer’s life or in every church. This is our Positional Sanctification. The verb is also used of those who walk in “the steps of the faith of Abraham” by believing as he believed, Rom 4:12, and by having confidence in their Positional Sanctification, Gal 6:16, for Experiential Sanctification. It is related to a condition of peace, a respite during an endless series of wars. What counts is the new creation. Walking in newness of life means utilization of all of the invisible assets God has provided for us: The availability of Divine power; the indwelling of the Trinity; our predestination and election; our Portfolio of Invisible Assets; our universal priesthood and ambassadorship, etc. This means having confident expectation in the promises of God to live daily unto Him, being especially confident in your translation to eternal glory at the resurrection (Rapture) of the Church; the Body of Christ. The Old Sin Nature can tempt in three areas: sin, human good and evil. Walking as children of light means we are to become spiritually mature and invisible heroes. ... Chapter 3: Chapter 4: Chapter 5: Chapter 6: Book Overview - Galatians . USA. Jesus alone fulfills the laws of Torah and justifies believers. In 1 Cor 9:25, it is used of the control of the athlete over his body and its desires, during his training for the stadium athletic games. Sow to the Spirit and reap eternal life. It means the one who is going forward or advancing in their spiritual life, cf. Because of these two factors, 1 John 1:9 says that we are to confess our sins so that we are “forgiven of our sins,” (sins of cognizance) and “cleansed from all unrighteousness,” (sins of ignorance). This is a part of the freedom you have been given by Christ. Why? Gal 5:10, “I have confidence in you in the Lord that you will adopt no other view; but the one who is disturbing you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.”. It is similar to CHRESTOTES, but yet different. We must also resist wasting our freedom on serving our sinful desires instead of serving others in love. Even though Paul founded the church there and explicitly told them everything they ever needed to know about Jesus, the Galatians haven't exactly been toeing the line. You and I also receive this freedom positionally at the moment of our salvation, when our bondage to sin and Satan’s cosmic system is broken by the Cross of Jesus Christ. There are three types of good in history. So great, marvelous, and fantastic is “walking in newness of life” that God stopped all prophecy in the Church Age. Paul admonished believers to tolerate and love each other and to have a forgiving attitude toward each other. 2 Cor 5:21, “He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.”, Now with newness of life, as a new spiritual species we are qualified to walk by means of God the Holy Spirit for our experiential sanctification, as we have noted previously in the outline of “walking.”. Until comparatively recent times, biblical scholars assumed that this epistle was sent to the churches in the geographical region known as Galatia, in north central Asia Minor. As a result of receiving the O.S.N, Adam began a new trend historically towards sin. They are too arrogant to get down in the muck and mire to minister and serve others. It means faithfulness or the expression of faith; faith-rest in action, especially referring to one’s relationship with God as expressed through your actions to “love your neighbor as you love yourself.” Cf. Through baptism you were identified with Christ’s death on the Cross, Rom 7:3-4. Therefore, the Old Sin Nature is Satan’s inside agent recruiting for the cosmic system. Mat 5:5; Titus 3:2; 1 Peter 3:4. This mild assertion has the effect of an emphatic statement that AGAPE Love, as manifested in the list of nine in vs. 22-23, fully meets the demands of the Mosaic Law. He admonished believers to “walk worthy of the Lord,” Col 1:10; 1 Thes 2:12; cf. But in our verse, Gal 5:16, we are commanded to “walk by the Spirit” which is synonymous with our Experiential Sanctification and spiritual growth. The sin nature is the source of temptation, but human volition is the source of sin. Freedom from the Bondage of Sin to Serve God and Man, vs. 1. Corruption means the Old Sin Nature and the result of the Old Sin Nature. All who advocate the Law for the believer cannot keep it themselves, and their intention is ultimate glory in the flesh. When they find them in our lives, they know that we have something they lack. “Against such” means when you have these things in operation, i.e. In spiritual walking, we shift from using our own human power to using Divine power. The same freedom that Adam had in perfection in the Garden prior to his fall, is the same freedom you and I have in our position of spiritual perfection as believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. The production of Divine Good in the human race is impossible apart from the grace of God for your salvation, indwelling and filling of the Holy Spirit and the application of Bible Doctrine from your soul. John expands upon this experiential walking by stating we need to “walk in the light,” which is an image of Christian faith, 1 John 1:6f; 2:6ff. It is the control of your own life under God’s plan as you constantly and consistently trust in Him, His Word and the Holy Spirit, to lead you and provide for you in all aspects of life. The term “flesh” is used to represent that the OSN is a part of the cell structure of our bodies. But He can only perform both of these ministries when we, the believer, place our self under subjection to Him in faith. In the sense of spirit it is feelings or disposition. But our freedom was not given to us so that we could go out and “keep on sinning so that grace may increase,” Rom 6:1. The volition guards the gate of the soul from the Old Sin Nature’s temptations. Paul knows the answer; it is Satan and his cosmic system that has sidetracked these Galatian believers. 1 Thes 4:1. An earnest exhortation to stand fast in the liberty of the gospel. That is, the victory over sin which the Lord Jesus purchased for us at the Cross is made actual and operative in our lives, as we yield to the Holy Spirit and trust Him for that victory. James H. Rickard Eph 5:8, “For you were formerly in darkness (spiritual death), but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light.”. We are to learn and apply God’s Word and have it resident within our souls, and be filled with God the Holy Spirit habitually, Eph 5:18. “Standing firm” is Phase 2 of the Christian life, our Experiential Sanctification, which is a command which means it is conditional, based on our volition, unlike our Position in Christ under Phase I, and Ultimate Sanctification in Phase III, which are not conditional for the believer. Jesus was never hampered by the problems and difficulties that come with sin and living inside of Satan’s Cosmic system. The former is achieved at positive volition towards the Cross for forgiveness of our sins at the moment of salvation, John 3:16-18, 36; Act 16:31; the latter is achieved at positive volition towards the Cross for the experiential forgiveness and cleansing of sins we have committed post salvation, 1 John 1:9. This is a fact for all believers. In vs. 9, Paul tells them of the toxic nature that legalism is. When we receive our final resurrection bodies at the resurrection of the Church, there will be no Old Sin Nature in those bodies. Have AGAPE Love for your neighbor by walking by means of the filling of God the Holy Spirit with the result that you produce the Fruit of the Spirit, (Divine Good Production). The “flesh,” once again, is our Old Sin Nature, and “passions and desires” are the lust patterns coming from the temptations of our Old Sin Natures. Galatians, Philippians, and Philemon Summary Galatians. Paul’s own life-style stands as a model for believers, Phil 3:17; cf. Whether sins of cognizance or sins of ignorance, the volition of the soul is involved in every sin. The fifth manifestation of AGAPE love is: Goodness, which is from AGATHOSUNE, αγαθωσυνη that means “goodness or kind actions,” and simply implies generosity. It is having genuine humility where you have no illusions about yourself and where you do not deal with the human race on the basis of merit. Gentleness/Meekness means to think, to understand before God that you are not worth anything and neither is anyone else; that we are all here by the grace of God. The only production which counts as Divine Good is production based on something in your soul which is there as a result of grace. Therefore, the list of nine in Gal 5:22-23 are not created by ourselves, but the Spirit who works mightily within us when we make ourselves available through non-meritorious faith to God’s Word, will and plan for our lives.
