Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

November 25



Galatians 1-3
A fundamental teaching of Paul, if followed, would do much to restore order to the church, as well as, honor in the sight of man and God: “So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”  This basic teaching removes all prejudices, promoting the freedom Christ died so that we might receive in Him.  It is in this freedom that unity can be had through harmonious fellowship with saints of all stripes.  Through this, we would no longer make harmful distinctions by elevating one above another.  Pride would take a backseat to humility as we would allow the Spirit to guide us into all righteousness through the love of Christ.
