Authority From The Inside Out

In Galatians 5:23b–24, the apostle Paul shows us that the Christian life is not about learning to live better under the same old rulers, but about living under an entirely new authority.Many of us struggle with authority because we have lived under rules that pressured but never healed, desires that promised freedom but never satisfied, and rulers that were harsh or unjust. Paul says the gospel introduces something different. The law no longer condemns. The flesh no longer rules. Christ now reigns from the inside out.In this sermon from our Inside Out Kingdom series, Pastor Neil Sandlin explores:Why there is “no law” against the fruit of the SpiritWhat it means to belong to Christ before we ever changeWhy the flesh is crucified, not improvedHow the cross reorders our desiresWhat true freedom looks like under a new authorityThis message is not a call to try harder, but to trust deeper, to live as people whose authority has already changed because of the cross of Jesus Christ.If this sermon encourages you, consider sharing it or subscribing for more messages from our Inside Out Kingdom series.
