Hey guys, welcome back. We are in Galatians 5 today. What an important section of scripture.

Talking about love, talking about being full of God's spirit, talking about spiritual victory.

If those things appeal to you, then please listen in today.

Welcome to Everyday Truth with Kurt Skelly. We believe the Bible is true and relevant to

everyone, everywhere, every day. If today's conversation is a help to you, take a moment to leave a

review or share it with a friend. Thanks for listening. Now, let's join Kurt for today's episode.

One of the most important sections of Galatians is the section that we're in right now

because we're really talking about the inner struggle that we believers have in the sense that we've

been saved and we have the Holy Spirit of God who now lives

inside of us, but there's a sense in which we've not been saved. And what I mean by that is

our body and the impulses and our flesh still remains with us. And so every believer deals with this struggle, the struggle

of the flesh and selfish desires and fleshly lusts and the pull of the spirit, which gives us

the ability through Christ and his power to live for God and gives us freedom

to love and to serve. So how do we, how does this work? That's really what the Apostle Paul is

driving at in the section that we're studying just now. We're in Galatians 5,

and I think we ended in verse 14 yesterday, where the Bible says that all the law is fulfilled

in one word, even in this, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

So interesting, and I've pointed this out in some messages and years gone by, but it's very interesting because a lawyer came to Jesus one day in Matthew 22 and asked him, what is the

greatest commandment in the law?

And Jesus said, well, love the Lord,

thy God, with all thy heart, soul, mind, and strength. You know, put love God first, and nobody would argue with that answer. And the second, Jesus said, is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as

thyself. On these two hang all the law of the prophets.
