Respond to Others (verse 2)
1. Paul may have told the Galatians that they were free from keeping the law and it's rituals, but he reminded them that they do still have responsibilities.
2. They are to bear with their neighbors, even in their flaws, weaknesses sorrows and suffering.
This is keeping with the law of Christ.
(John 13:34; James 2:8).
Be Realistic About Yourself (verses 3 & 4)
1. Test our own actions and motives.
2. Keep a proper opinion about yourself and your work
a. Humility
b. "Your work" is the work you do with others, not your vocation.
It's about how you react and treat your neighbors and your brothers and sisters in Christ.
c.
We can become conceited and full of pride thinking we are pleasing God better then someone else.
d.
We can start to think we don't have sins in our lives, and become busy correcting others.
This is not wise (2 Corinthians 10:12-18).
3. It's not wrong to take pride in good work, Paul explains this in Galatians 6:4.
But we must be humble.
a. Humility is being able to recognize the good you may do and praise God that He made it possible - also to be just as glad if another person does it.
b.
Examine yourself!
Be Responsible to God (Verse 5)
1.
Some might feel there is a contradiction between Galatians 6:2;5.
2. Two different words are used in the original language, in verse 2 Paul speaks of a heavy weight pressing another down; in verse 5 the term suggests carrying your load, like a soldier would carry their own pack.
3. We each have personal responsibilities that no one can accept for us (Romans 2:6; 14:2; 2 Corinthians 5:10).
4. Adam tried to blame Eve and Eve tried to blame the serpent.
God held each of them responsible, however.
We have personal responsibility.
We must all give account to God.
Closing
1.
The challenge we have when being responsible to God is that we don't get caught up trying to impress God and lose our way through pride and judging others.
2. It is important that we develop a healthy perspective of ourselves.
We need to improve our self awareness.
a. Make sure you have mentors in your life that will be honest with you.
b.
Celebrate when others are doing well, and take on the pain when they are not.
c.
Check your motives, celebrate the wins but understand that God is the one driving the car.
Give Him the credit for everything!!
d.
When you fail, own it and repent.
Big Idea: The law of Christ is love for everyone.
We show Christ's love through our actions, motivated by the Spirit.
Jesus is the engineer of this love.
