TODAY’S SERMON
SERMON TITLE: Galatians: The Power of Acceptance
TEXT: Galatians 1 & Acts 26:12-18
SPEAKER: Pastor Dan Turner

There is no shortage of people who want to speak into our lives about our identity. Unfortunately, most of those messages don’t lead to acceptance and freedom. In the midst of a conflict over whose way of following Christ is superior, Paul gives us a strong argument about our identity in Christ. We have been made whole through Christ. In the cross of Christ we are really a new creation–freed, transformed, and empowered by the Spirit’s leading for loving service of the neighbor.

SERMON NOTES

1. REMEMBER YOUR ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS

“Then I asked, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ “ ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,’ the Lord replied.  ‘Now get up and stand on your feet. I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen and will see of me. Acts 26:15-16

2. REHEARSE WHAT JESUS SAYS ABOUT YOU

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:103. TURN DOWN THE VOLUME OF OTHER VOICES

For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. Galatians 1:10
