It is hard to believe that we are at the end of our study on the book of Galatians. For those who participated in the online portion of this study, we spent 14 weeks looking at the book of Galatians. But for those of us who led discussion groups, we have been camped out in this book for about six months, half a year, twenty-four weeks. However you look at it, that's a significant amount of time to spend in one book. And yet, I feel like I have barely scratched the surface of truly understanding and applying the truths in this book. I'm sure I could spend another six months and not have it all down.
But there are a few verses that have stuck out in my mind and I feel capture the spirit of the book, the main points if you will. You probably have other verses that spoke to you and sum up the book for you. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness[c] were through the law,then Christ died for no purpose.
As I read these verses, I realize I could sit and meditate on these verses every day and let the truth of Christ living in me, and how that looks in my daily life, truly sink into my brain.
I pray that you also had verses you will carry with you from this time in study. May God use your time in His word these past weeks to build your faith in Him.
God bless you all! We hope to see you this fall in our next study.
