Shofar Stellenbosch | Galatians And Philippiansنموونە

Verse 5, you recall, said that a day is coming when every person's final verdict will be announced and those who are in Christ will be made perfect in righteousness (implying that we are not yet perfect). The way we wait for that day is not through our own power by works of the law but through the Spirit by faith.

Read the scripture and then answer the following questions.  

Reflective questions:

• Highlight and meditate on verse 6, ask the Holy Spirit to reveal His truth.
• What are the warnings we can take from this passage?

Works like circumcision avail nothing with God, but faith working through love avails everything.

• Why was the cross a stumbling block to those preaching the false gospel about circumcision?
