Galatians 5:1-12... Cut off your Weiner????
In this fun yet thought-provoking sermon, Pastor Dave dives into Paul’s bold statement in Galatians 5:12, where he expresses frustration with those who insisted on circumcision and legalism, challenging them to “cut it all off.” But at the heart of this seemingly wild statement lies a powerful truth: It is for freedom that Christ has set us free (Galatians 5:1).
Pastor Dave unpacks how the gospel isn’t about following a bunch of rules or living under the heavy weight of religion. Instead, Jesus’ sacrifice was all about breaking those chains and offering us true freedom. We don’t have to live bound by guilt, shame, or the pressure to earn God’s love through works. It’s already ours! And it’s that freedom that enables us to fully live in grace, love others, and experience joy, even when life gets messy.
This freedom isn’t a license to do whatever we want, but it’s the power to live boldly for Christ without being enslaved to old habits or unnecessary rules. Dave challenges us to cut off not just legalism but anything that keeps us from living in the full freedom Christ offers. Come ready for laughs, some sharp truths, and a reminder that God’s love for us is unconditional and freeing!
