S: 4 This matter arose because some false believers had infiltrated our ranks to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus and to make us slaves. 5 We did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you.
O: * The law of old was for then and had purpose
* But then Jesus came...we are not bound by the law
* The Gospel is under the new covenant, not the old law
* When we try to return to the old law, we return to bondage.
* And Jesus came to set us free, not keep us enslaved
A: I can sometimes be like a keeper of the law, but I have to remember that Jesus cam for the purpose of breaking the law inot what it was (works) and to bring freedom. He has set me free... I must remember when I am tempted to sin, Jesus has set me free and if I choose to sin anyway, I am in effect saying that Jesus' sacrifice was for nothing.
P: God, Your sacrifice is my freedom. I no longer have to live under the law, for You have set me free. I do not want to return to the law and return to bondage. I want to walk in the freedom You have given. I am Yours...
