Living as New Creatures [Galatians 6:11-18]

Sermon Discussion Questions

  • Why does Paul feel the need to write these last few verses with his own hand?  Why is this significant?  
  • It’s easy to hide behind the comforts and boastings of this world and of our own heart.  What sorts of things do you hide behind?  What do you fear giving up?  What are you relying on for False Comfort?
  • What is the rule we are to follow for True Comfort and blessing?  Why do you think Paul uses the language of rule-following here?  What purpose does this serve?
  • As New Creatures, the Discipleship to which we are called is radical and totally counter-cultural.  Is it odd to think that we are called to be obsessors of a man and his cross?  What makes this difficult for us?  How can we grow in our obsession?
