Shofar Stellenbosch | Galatians And PhilippiansSample
Read the scripture and then answer the following questions.
Reflective questions:
- What is this "new creation" that counts for everything?
- What is the difference between boasting in the flesh and boasting in the cross?
None of us will be saved because we are perfect or because anything we do earns God's approval. The peace of God and the mercy of God are free gifts purchased on Calvary for all who walk by this rule—the rule of Christ-exaltation, not self-exaltation. Right standing with God is not merited by works. It is given freely to those who glory in the work of Christ on the cross. Therefore, I urge you to come to the cross. And if you are there, I urge you to glory in the cross. Christ crucified is the basis of all our prayers, the assurance of all God's love, the certainty of full forgiveness, the ground of all our hope, and the fountain of midnight peace and morning mercies for ever and ever. Amen.

About this Plan
The Shofar Stellenbosch team put together a few devotionals to help the students and families to remain in the Word during the holiday season. This 30-day devotional on the letter to the Galatians and Philippians focuses on studying the Word and asking reflective questions to help us be doers and not only readers of the Word.
