Sermon by Rev. Nick Renaud © This recording is not to be reproduced, distributed, or rebroadcast without permission from Knox Church, Toronto (info@knoxtoronto.org). Thank you!
For a few weeks we've been bouncing around in ScripturesNext week we'll settle into something more consistent,- and I've chosen to hike through Paul's letter to the Galatians• but not today–• my talk this morning will be another random meditation- what I will say about this letter,• Paul was not at all pleased with the churches in the region of Galatia◦ he had introduced them to a life in God through Jesus◦ but others had followed Paul with a “distorted gospel”• so the Christian faith was represented by two different forms◦ the distorted version emphasized a deadly legalism◦ Paul's version was a new life in the Spirit of God“Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law or by hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?” (Gal. 3:2-3)- I believe this letter identifies a problem that's prevalent today
"The Waiting Room" by Matt Miller. Roots and Fruit - Part 5. The message was preached on July 13, 2025. Galatians 5:22-23.
Series: Undivided AttentionThere are likely paths you would pursue right now in whatever season of life you're in if not for limitations. Those limitations might be physical. They might be financial. They might be time-related, or any number of other factors might cause them. Whatever they are, how would your life be different if those limitations didn't exist? We have freedom in Christ. Complete freedom. But from what? And just as important - for what? To know the answer to the first question is to open up the endless possibilities for the second.

What if the very system you trust to bring you closer to God is actually pulling you away from His grace—and true freedom is found somewhere you might not expect? In Galatians 5, Paul reminds us that true freedom comes not from religious rule-keeping or law-based performance, but from living by the Spirit through faith in Christ alone.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

Paul urges us to stay free and not get tied up again in slavery—this time, not slavery to old sinful habits, but to religious legalism. Both are equally destructive.Many Mormons follow rules, believing this makes them justified before God. Paul, once a Pharisee, believed the same until he encountered Christ:Philippians 3:7-9 (NLT): Paul calls his former religious achievements "garbage" compared to knowing Christ.Relying on works, like circumcision in Paul's day or LDS temple worthiness today, cuts people off from Christ and God's grace. True righteousness comes by faith alone.Big Idea: Christ set us free—don't return to a system of religious control.Illustration: Jesus didn't come to give us a new set of religious rules. He came to set us free (Matthew 11:28-30).Section 2: The Danger of Legalism (Galatians 5:7-12)Galatians 5:7-12 (NLT)The Galatians were running well until false teachers led them astray, adding law-keeping to the gospel. Paul warns that even small false teachings spread like yeast.Who holds Mormons back today? Consider the "Four Horsemen" of LDS control:LDS LeadershipLDS ScripturesLDS Temple System (worthiness interviews, temple recommends)LDS Culture and Social PressureAll these create a performance treadmill, keeping people from the simple gospel of grace.Paul is blunt: False teachers deserve judgment.Section 3: Freedom Isn't a License to Sin (Galatians 5:13-15)Galatians 5:13-15 (NLT)Freedom from the law doesn't mean freedom to indulge the sinful nature. It leads to loving and serving others.Key Point: True freedom leads to love and service, not selfishness.LDS Misconception: Evangelicals are often accused of "cheap grace."Examples:Bruce R. McConkie (Book: Mormon Doctrine (2nd ed., 1966), p. 671) : “One of the most pernicious heresies of modern Christendom is the concept that man is saved by grace alone... This concept, as interpreted by modern Christians, removes all the restraints which encourage personal righteousness and offers salvation to the sinner merely for confessing Christ.”Spencer W. Kimbal (Book: The Miracle of Forgiveness (1969), p. 206) : “One of the most fallacious doctrines originated by Satan and propounded by man is that man is saved alone by the grace of God; that belief in Jesus Christ alone is all that is needed for salvation.”True...

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Galatians 5, in which St. Paul contrasts the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. We bear good fruit not to be saved, but because we have been saved, grafted into the true vine, which is Christ.
Pastor Drew Webb explores the Apostle Paul's message to the Galatians about the true nature of Christian freedom. Are we saved by grace—or grace plus something else?

Join the Torah Teachers, Ray Harrison, Pete Rambo, and Mark Call as they continue the study of the 'most twisted Book in the Bible,' the apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians. There is no doubt that much of what he wrote about, even warned about, has literally been "turned on its head." This week, as they "un-twist Paul, they explore Galatians chapter 5.
In the United States every year, for the last 248 years, we have celebrated our independence from England's rule. We broke free because of the tyrannical, oppressive rule of England's king. A similar thing might be said of our Christian freedom. Listen and be encouraged. Copyright, Dave Andrus 2025

We all have a lifestyle, a particular way we go about decision-making in everyday life. Everyone is deeply motivated by a driving force or power of some kind. When Galatians 5:16-26 calls followers of Jesus to “walk by the Spirit” and to be “led by the Spirit," it's calling us to a lifestyle of surrender - a way of life shaped by the Spirit's presence and power. But what does that lifestyle look like, and what does it produce?

Imagine investing everything into someone's freedom, only to watch them willingly return to what enslaves. That's the angst and heartbreak we discover in Galatians 5:1-15. Are you truly living in the radical freedom Jesus brings, or are you subtly allowing old patterns, or even new teachings, to drag you back into slavery?
