O Foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Christ has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?”.
Galatians 3:1
St. Paul is telling the Galatians that you have been deceived by the lies that questioned your beliefs and contradicts the scripture. He asks, “Are you so foolish that after beginning with the spirit you are trying to attain salvation by law(work). Galatians 3:3)This is the outcome of strongholds in the mind.
People are neither possessed nor demonized but it is a stronghold .Satan brings some accusations or guilt of the past and he accuses us and he disuades us very subtly. He seeks to destroy our faith and people are comfortable with their old rituals and oblations.
“sacrifice and offering that wouldest not but a body hast thou prepared me” “In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure”.” I have come to do your will”.(kjv)
Hebrew 10:5,6,7
We are waiting for the blessed hope. The glorious appearing of our great God and saviour Jesus Christ because He gave himself for our sins and purify for Himself a people that are His very own.
Let no man be deceived in establishing his/her holiness by works, because scripture declares that” our good works are like dirty rags”.
He is our High Priest and advocate in Heaven. We are washed by the blood of Jesus.
Isaiah64:6
“That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word”.
Ephesians5:26
We got converted but were nominal believers, our grand Father was a priest. They would go out in the scorching heat to evangelize people in the villages. We gave our life to Jesus and took water baptism. Thus, became born again Christians
Prayer
Thank you, Jesus, for your precious blood and choosing us to be the partakers of eternal life.
Amen
