Begin with a prayer asking God for help in understanding and applying His Word to your life. Then read the passage from Galatians 6:11-18.
Investigate
What does verse 12 tell us about what the Judaizers want most in life?
How is this different from authentic Christianity (vv 14-15)?
How do verses 14 and 15 give us a summary of the whole letter?
In verse 16 Paul encourages us to “follow this rule.” That is, to live by the Gospel of Christ crucified. What four things does living like this produce (vv 16-18)?
Why are each of these four things a consequence of loving and living for Jesus?
Apply
How would you sum up the letter of Galatians in a sentence? (You can’t just say verses 14-15)
In what ways have you been encouraged and challenged by our time in this book?
After studying this book, how are you going to live your life differently?
Discipleship is the process of growing in love for Jesus and His Church over the course of a lifetime demonstrated through obedience, perseverance, and submission.
