The epistle to the Galatians is a letter that defends the liberty that all believers in Jesus Christ have (Galatians 5:1), by virtue of faith in His atoning sacrifice on the cross.
Freedom is one thing that every human being desires. We have a day each year when we take the time to remember those who gave their lives in war that you and I might enjoy the freedoms that we cherish in our nation. How much more should you and I, as believers in Jesus Christ, rejoice in the eternal freedom (Hebrews 9:12) that He has given unto us!
Grace is free, but our freedom was not without a price. “Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.” (1 Peter 1:18-19)
Whenever we gather around the communion table, may we bow our hearts in worship, adoration, and thanksgiving to the One who died for us that we might live forever (Revelation 5:9-14)!
