Galations 5&6

Paul ties things up nicely in chapter 5. This is my favorite chapter in the whole bible. Freedom from what in verse 1? Answer. The curse of the law. Only Christ can free us from the curse. In verse 2 circumcision or any work done for the purpose of obtaining righteousness alienates us from Christ. The MESSAGE translation expresses this section like this:"When you attempt to live by your own religious plans and projects, you are cut off from Christ, you fall out of grace. For in Christ, neither our most conscientious religion nor disregard of religion amounts to anything. What matters is something far more interior: faith expressed in love." Verse 18 I believe, though short, says a lot, "But if you are lid by the Spirit you are not under law." This should be the goal of every christian in every moment of every day. Chapter 5, verses 16 through the end of the chapter are explained in a very practical way in the message TRANSLATION. now EGARDING THE QUESTIONS: 3;10 and 6:7. Sin has consequences. It causes us to break fellowship with God, not God breaking fellowship  with us. We suffer. 3:16 This study of Galatians should help us be more thankful for the Aabrahamic promise. 3:1 We all can become bewitched when we attempt to do life on our own. 5:18 Those who are not led by the Spitit are still under law. Will sign off with one more comment from C.S.Lewis which has been a big comfort to me concerning Galations 5:14. Loving ones neighbor simply means wanting the best for him and doing what we can to bring the best to him. Thanks for reading. Darrel
