Sermon: Bearing Burdens – Galatians 6:1-5

I preached again!

On Sunday, May 10, I covered Galatians 6:1-5.

Below the video is my PowerPoint.

Bearing Burdens – Galatians 6:1-5

VerseD: Mark 16:15

Then He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation.”

Mark 16:15, HCSB

Faith in Christ necessarily means we share the faith, for He told us to and empowers us with the Holy Spirit who draws all people to Christ.

VerseD: Psalm 32:8

I will instruct you and show you the way to go; with My eye on you, I will give counsel.

Psalm 32:8, HCSB

Faith in Christ necessarily means we share the faith, and through the Bible and the indwelling Holy Spirit sent from God He guides us in the work of drawing others to faith.

VerseD: John 20:21

Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”

John 20:21, HCSB

Faith in Christ necessarily means we share the faith, for He has sent us to proclaim the gospel just as He was sent by the Father.

VerseD: Matthew 9:37-38

Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.”

Matthew 9:37-38, CSB

We love the Church, for we are sent out by God to reach people for Christ as the Body of Christ, encouraging each other to rely on Hod who is already working in the harvest.

VerseD: Isaiah 9:2

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone.

Isaiah 9:2, ESV

Trust God. This world is a dark, confusing place, but He came to us in the Person of Jesus to shine His light, give us hope, and send us out in the power of the Holy Spirit to shine His light for others.

VerseD: Acts 2:38

And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

Acts 2:38, ESV‬

The Holy Spirit empowers us to Repent and faithfully follow Christ. Our God has sent Him that we may be sent out to lead others to forgiveness in Christ.

VerseD: Acts 1:8

“‭But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Acts 1:8, ESV‬

Christ has sent us into the world, sent filled by the Holy Spirit to proclaim Christ.

VerseD: Hebrews 12:2

fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Hebrews 12:2, NASB1995‬

Christ has redeemed us and sends us out to share that redemption with the world. It can feel intimidating, unless we keep our focus on the One who has done it and goes before us.

VerseD: Mark 16:15

And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”

Mark‬ ‭16:15‬, ‭ESV‬

This world has rejected God, but as the Father sent the Son to save the world, they send the Holy Spirit to send us to proclaim that message of His coming.
