TITLE: Contrast On Display
Scripture: Galatians 5:16-26
“I have a job to do that is not very complicated, but it is often difficult: to get a group of men to do what they have wanted all their lives.” Tom Landry
I. THE CONFLICT
If living a life for God relies on us keeping the 10 Commandments, we are all (doomed). The reason? The (conflict) within us. See Romans 7:15,19-25 (p.943)
“The spiritual life will not be maintained without a struggle…Disobedience and rebellion against the Spirit of God pervade the whole nature of man.” John Calvin
II. THE CONTRAST
Jesus and Paul’s lists are a lot alike. But the point they both make is these sins come (from inside) a person.
The list can be divided into 4 main groups:
1. Illicit sexual activity
2. Religious perversion
3. Social conflict
4. Drunkenness
I Corinthians 6:9-10
