Walking by the Spirit

Galatians 5:16-26

1. The Tale of Two Men (both names Bob)
1. New convert
2. Christian for 10 years
2. Life in the Spirit and Life in the flesh: vss. 16-18
1. Review from last week
2. vs. 18 can be confusing. “So I can just go out and what I want to do?!”
3. Deeds of the flesh: Outward sins and inward sins: vss. 19-21
1. Sins of sexual worship
2. Sins of outright false worship
3. Sins of self-worship
4. Reflections of the Spirit: vss 22-23
1. All our inner attitudes that express themselves outwardly. Not Serve! Teach! Work! Give!
5. True Life: recognition of and clinging to the promises
1. Repentance of your “real sins”. We are dead to sin, but it is not dead to us.
2. “Walk” “Follow” “Keep in step” “Live” by the Spirit

Questions to Ponder:
