Galatians 2:11-14

Galatians 2:11-14
What we see here is a confrontation between two of the real pillars of the post-resurrection Christian church, Peter and Paul. Peter was the guy at fault here, and Paul confronted him because he was guilty of being a hypocrite. I know, I know, if we kicked all the hypocrites out of the church, there would be nothing but empty chairs!

Galatians 2:1-10
Paul was quick to point people to Christ, and eager to share the Gospel! Many around him found this message disturbing as we’ll see today on Growing in the Word. We can expect the same sort of reaction today. Pastor Jim Jarrett will underscore the gospel of grace alone through faith alone on today’s broadcast as part of our continuing study of Galatians. We’ve just begun a look at chapter two, where we read Paul’s passionate defense of the gospel.

Galatians 2:1-10
As we begin a look at chapter two today, Paul has set the stage for his theme in this letter. The churches in Galatia had fallen victim to false teaching. Of course, there was some backlash, of course, but here in chapter two, Paul defends his authority to preach the gospel, and he defends the gospel message as well.

Galatians 1:11-24
Today on the program, pastor Jim will takes us once again to Galatians chapter one, as Paul shares his own personal testimony of how Jesus Christ saved him . The people of Galatia needed to hear this because they had straying in their doctrine. They had been deceived into believing that some more than faith in Jesus was required for salvation.

Galatians 1:11-24
Today on Growing in the Word, pastor Jim Jarrett will help us get a grip on the reality of eternity - and what is required for us to spend eternity with God in a place called heaven. In our study of the book of Galatians we are in a section that is biographical in nature. We are considering the first seventeen years of Paul’s ministry.

Galatians 1:6-10
The Galatians were Paul’s spiritual children, and they had strayed from the gospel message Paul had taught them - salvation through faith in Christ alone. You can imagine that he was not happy, so he wrote them a letter - and that’s what we are studying here on Growing in the Word. Pastor Jim Jarrett takes us to Galatians chapter one today, and more of Paul’s stern words to the churches in Galatia.

Galatians 1:6-10
Remember when you were young and did something naughty? Remember getting talked to sternly by your parents? Remember that feeling of shame? Well, as we continue in Galatians one today, we are going to continue to see Paul’s angry reaction to his beloved friends in Galatia turning to a false gospel. As Jim has mentioned before, this is the only letter Paul wrote that contains absolutely no encouragement. It’s a good old fashioned dressing-down!

Galatians 1:1-5 part 2b
The churches in Galatia had strayed away from the truths Paul had taught them when the church was formed. Salvation through faith was the corner stone, and the Galatians had listened to the wrong teachers after Paul had left, and now they believed they had to work for their salvation. That’s the same false doctrine that many people are falling for today - even in the strongest Christian churches.

1:1-5 part 2a
Pastor Jim Jarrett has just begun a new series in Galatians, and in chapter one we see that this letter is really about Paul versus the false teachers. The Galatians had been fooled into believing a different gospel message, and Paul’s letter sets the record straight that a it is through faith and faith alone that we are saved, and not by any task or deed we perform.

Galatians 1:1-5 part 1b
The Apostle Paul was not pleased with what was going on at the churches located in Galatia. They had fallen for some false doctrine - and there were very few things that ticked Paul off like false teaching. Are we saved by faith, or are there things we can do to work our way to heaven? That was the basic problem going on in Galatia - they had been fooled into thinking that works would be enough. Let’s join pastor Jim for the conclusion of his first message in what promises to be an awesome time in the book of Galatians.

Jim Jarrett is our Bible teacher, and today he introduces us to the book of Galatians. Over the course of the next couple of months, we’ll be making our way through this epistle, from beginning to end. Whether you’re passionate about your golf game, or music, or reading, or whatever it is, we all have things we feel passionate about. Do you feel passionate when it comes to the gospel of Jesus Christ? The apostle Paul wrote this letter to the province of Galatia, and let’s join pastor Jim now for the beginning of what promises to be an intriguing look at this six chapter epistle.

The world today has sought to make Jesus into some sort of hippie proselytizer, or a positive-thinking guru. He is nothing of the sort. He God in human flesh. He is the wonderful son of almighty God, sent to the earth to die for our sins. Let’s join pastor Jim for another look at Jesus Christ - who He is and who He is not.

Change is a part of life, but when it comes to our relationship with Jesus, one of the most comforting truths we learn is that He never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. That’s one of John’s main points in the first chapter of Revelation, and that’s where we are headed today, so turn there and join us!

We’re continuing our series called “Why Men Need to be Saved” today, as we again turn to Romans three, verses nine through twenty.

We hope you had a blessed Easter Sunday! Today we continue our series titled “Who is Jesus?”. We will be looking today at Colossians chapter one, verses fifteen through twenty. Sin has separated man from God. God simply cannot have anything to do with sin. He hates it. So Jesus came to earth and died on a cross to reconcile us with God. We just celebrated that truth this past weekend. Without the reconciliation Jesus provided, we would all have a death sentence hanging over our heads.

Easter Message
Today we bring you a special message for this special day, as we remember the great sacrifice Jesus made on the cross of Calvary. He died a painful and unjust death for a wonderful reason - to save us from the penalty of our sins. But if Jesus had died on the cross, and the story ended there, we would be in big trouble. But Jesus rose from the grave and walked out of the tomb, and bridged the gap between us and a perfect and Holy God.

That promise was cemented in stone when the Lord rose from the grave and walked out of that tomb.

I’m sure you’ve heard someone say this - “It’ doesn’t matter what you believe, we’ll all end up in the same place... heaven.” Jesus confronts this misconception in John chapter ten, and that’s where we’ll be today on Growing in the Word. Welcome to the broadcast. Pastor Jim Jarrett will attract us to another “I am” statement from our Lord... “I am the door of the sheep.” Notice He said, THE door, which implies that He is the only way.
