Galatians Part 6 – Walk by the Spirit, be led by the Spirit, keep in step with the Spirit

We are called to a life that is lived by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit; to walk by the Spirit (Gal. 5:16), be led by the Spirit (Gal. 5:18), and keep in step with the Spirit (Gal. 5:25). But we face an ongoing choice to reject the ways of the flesh and make room for the Spirit’s work in our life – Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Galatians 6:8 Living by the Spirit is also a Christ-centred life. The apostle Paul urges us that the cross of Jesus Christ is the only thing worth boasting about. Nothing of our own works or attempts at righteousness has any value, only “the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world” (Gal. 6:14). In Christ now what really counts is that in him we are a new creation (Gal. 6:15).
