K1 What did God say to you through the teaching today?

G1 Why might chapter 5 be considered the central passage to the book of Galatians?

G2 Read Galatians 5 and highlight all the places where you see slavery defined or illustrated. Now do the same for freedom. What stands out to you from this exercise?

G3 Which form of slavery are do you lean towards: the slavery of legalism or the slavery of license? Why do you think this is?

G4 Read verse 4: what does it mean for a Christian to be “alienated from Christ” or to have “fallen away from grace”? Talk to Jesus about this.

G5 Verse 19 says that the “acts of the flesh are obvious”. Go slowly through the list in verse 19-21 and ask God to show which acts of the flesh you are prone to?

G6 How does “Loving your neighbour as yourself” (v14) fulfil the entire (Mosaic) law? What did Dan mean when he said that this as an impossible command? What then is our hope? (v16)?

S1 Each day this week, wake up and consciously ask for God’s strength to “walk in the Spirit” (v16) or “keep in step with the Spirit” (v25) that day.
