Galatians 5:16-25

I. LUST OF THE FLESH
II. FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

If you have your Bible tonight we are studying the book of Galatians and I want you to turn to Galatians 5 where last Sunday night we talked about the life of liberty and the life of license and the life of legalism. You don't have to get off on one extreme or legalism or to the other extreme of license; you can live in liberty.

You can move forward but oh so painfully and oh with so much difficulty and you know there are a lot of believers are doing that - trying to live the life that Jesus wants us to live apart from the infilling of the Spirit in our life.

We must learn tonight how the power that is resident in us must become released through us. Somebody said that there is enough energy stored in the ticket for passage on a railroad train to run that train around the world three times. All of it is in the ticket but the key is how do you get it out.

There is enough power in your life, enough power in this church for God to work in such a mighty, miraculous way through us but how can we have that power released? That's what you and I need to discover from the book of Galatians.
