Sermon Notes

Galatians 5:13-15


"In Christ, in the Kingdom, we are a slave to one and a servant to all.” ~Asil Treblig


In Christ, in the Kingdom…

1. We are called to be free.

· Free from the eternal consequence of sin.

· Free from our performance and work.


2. But freedom still has boundaries.

· We are not free to indulge our flesh.

· True freedom is walking in the Spirit.


3. We are bound to the One.

· We are bond servants to our King.

· We are bound to be like Him.


4. We are bound to others.

· We filter our freedom through others.


GOING DEEPER
  1. Remember a time when you felt you were a prisoner to something but were set free. Explain.

  2. In what ways do you feel you are a prisoner to sin or of this world?

  3. Read Romans 8:2,3. What do these verses tell us about freedom?

  4. Read 1 Peter 2:16. What further insight can we gain about freedom from this verse?

  5. In what area do you still struggle being a slave to sin? In what area do you need to be a slave to God?

Matthew 25:14-30


“It doesn’t matter how much you have in the Kingdom, it matters what you do with what you have.” ~Asil Treblig


To have the right response to your ability in the Kingdom you must understand…


1. All we have has been entrusted to us.

· By Jesus, the owner of all things

· Because He is temporarily away


2. Our response should be based on our ability.

· Jesus knows us intimately

· He knows what we can and can’t do


3. Our response should be immediate.

· Jesus’ return is imminent

· The opportunities may not always be there


4. Our response should be visible.

· Saving faith is working faith

· Taking advantage of all our abilities through God given opportunities over time


5. Our response will be judged.

· Based on our ability

· According to our response
