Galatians 5:1-14 | Free to Love Others

In this message from Galatians 5:1-4, guest speaker Pastor John Cowan teaches on the freedom believers have in Jesus Christ and the danger of slipping back into legalism. He walks through Paul's warning to the Galatian church, showing that trying to earn righteousness through rule keeping empties the cross of its meaning, while trusting in Christ alone brings real rest. True faith is not about spiritual performance but about leaning fully on Jesus, who exchanges our sin for his own perfect righteousness. That same freedom is meant to be lived out through love, serving others rather than indulging the flesh, so that grace and neighbor love become the natural fruit of a life no longer bound to the law.
