Galatians 3:23–29丨Deliverance from Bondage to the Law丨John MacArthur

The greatness of our salvation is what is on my mind, and should be on yours this morning, as we come to the Lord’s Table. And I don’t know if you think about the greatness of our salvation in the broadest possible terms, but occasionally I’m stimulated to do that. And upon having the opportunity […]

Galatians 3:15–22丨The Inferiority of the Law丨John MacArthur

We are committed to deal with the Scripture as it’s laid out, and the amazing reality is that the letter of Galatians, for example, and for that matter, the rest of the New Testament was written to new believers in the case of the epistles of Paul to new believers who were Gentiles and had […]

Galatians 3:15–18丨God’s Eternal Covenant of Promise丨John MacArthur

We are again in the book of Galatians, so turn to Galatians chapter 3. And there’s a reason for that. Since this is 2017, the five hundredth year of the celebration and the anniversary of the Reformation, seemed to me a good time to go through the book of Galatians. It was, in studying the […]

Galatians 3:15–18丨The Big Picture of Salvation丨John MacArthur

Let’s go back to the third chapter of Galatians this morning. You may feel a little bit like you are in a seminary class. When we go through the Word of God we have to take what comes, and some of it is a little more intellectually challenging, at least on the surface, than other […]

Galatians 3:13丨Considering the Curse Christ Carried丨John MacArthur

I really do believe that our understanding of the cross, our grasp of the cross, our worship of the crucified Christ, our celebration of the cross, our understanding of the cross, the level of passion or emotion we bring to the cross is really a result of what informs our understanding of the cross. It […]

Galatians 3:10丨The Curse of the Law丨John MacArthur

As we prepare to come to this table that is set before us, I want you to turn in your Bible to Galatians chapter 3. And I want to read just a portion of a verse there, and then just set our thoughts toward the Lord. Galatians chapter 3, just that 10th verse: “For as many […]

Galatians 3:10–14丨Works or Grace?, Part 3丨John MacArthur

So open your Bible, if you will. This portion before us perfectly suits our attention being given to the cross. So we’re going to stay right where we are, Galatians chapter 3. Let me just begin reading. And even though we’re going to consider primarily the latter part of this scripture down in verses 13-14, […]

Galatians 3:10–14丨Works or Grace?, Part 2

For this morning I want to draw your attention to Galatians chapter 3, Galatians chapter 3, and we come to the portion of Scripture that is verses 10 to 13. Let me – well, actually I’ll read down to verse 14. Galatians 3:10 to 14. “For as many as are of the works of the Law are […]

Galatians 3:6–14丨Works or Grace?, Part 1丨John MacArthur

For now, open your Bible to Galatians chapter 3, and we come back to this wonderful epistle of Paul written very early in his ministry, the first of his epistles, to confront the constant problem of people corrupting the gospel. People do it because demons do it, because Satan does it. It is the strategy […]

Galatians 3:1-5丨The Ministries of the Holy Spirit, Part 3丨John MacArthur

Let’s open our Bibles this morning. We are still discussing “The Sufficiency of the Spirit,” which in fact is an interlude in the middle of our study of Philippians. We have finished Philippians 2; we have not embarked on Philippians 3 yet. But the Spirit of God has pressed upon my heart the need to discuss […]
