Galatians
Freedom’s Restoration
Galatians 6:1-5
How can any Church become a place where people caught in sin get set free?
God calls us to restore the sinner, not blame him.
As we climb the summit to be all that God created us to be, sometimes we fall.
Only the Spirit of God has that ability, and we need to let Him oversee the care of spiritually broken and wounded people.
If we want to become a place of healing for broken people, then we must restore the sinner spiritually.
If we’re going to be a place of healing for broken people, then we must restore the sinner gently.
When we restore a sinning believer there is no room for comparison. There is only room for humility and self-examination.
If we’re going to be a place of healing for broken people, then, we must restore the sinner humbly.
Legalists only add to people’s burdens. On the other hand, love lifts and bears the burden.
May we be known as a place of healing for broken people, because we restore them spiritually, gently, humbly, and lovingly.
