Repeat Warnings
Sept 22, 2014
Read: Galatians 1:6-10
Caution, the moving walkway is ending. Caution, the moving walkway is ending. If youve ever used an automated walkway at an airport, youve heard this kind of announcement repeatedly.
Why do airports repeat this announcement over and over? To ensure safety and to protect them from liability if someone were to be injured.
Repeated announcements can be annoying, but they do have value. As a matter of fact, the apostle Paul thought repeating a warning was so vital that he did it in the text of Galatians. But his statement had value far beyond the danger of tripping at the airport. Paul warned them not to listen to, nor believe, him or an angel from heaven if they preached any other gospel than what they had already heard (1:8). In the next verse, Paul said it again. It was a warning worth repeating. The Galatians had begun to believe that their salvation was dependent on good works instead of the true gospel: faith in Christs work.
The gospel of JesusHis death, burial, and resurrection for the forgiveness of sinsis the story that we have the privilege and responsibility to share. When we present the gospel, lets share that the risen Jesus is the only solution to the problem of sin.
He is the way, the truth, the life
That One whose name is Jesus;
There is no other name on earth
That has the power to save us. Sper
Only one road leads to heaven Jesus Christ is the way.
Pauls letter to the church in Galatia addresses Christians who were being persuaded to return to a lifestyle that sought to earn Gods favor through good deeds and obedience to the law of Moses. Todays passage is part of the introduction to the letter. In these few verses, Paul introduces the topics that will be covered in the rest of the letter, provides the reason this should be of interest to the reader, and establishes his own authority to address the topic. Paul will be writing about the true gospel of Christ (vv.6-9), and the reader should pay attention to his words because he is the bondservant of Christ (v.10). Anyone who preaches another message is accursed (vv.8-9).

A good day, thanks! After Mass, I drove down to DC to pick my daughter Mary up. She's staying over this evening and helped me in the Front Garden this afternoon - some Fall cleanup. She also helped me planting a couple of Mums.
We had an excellent dinner - broiled Alaska Salmon basted with my Honey-Dijon sauce - well received.
I'm glad to see your Mom is doing better today.

I have read the exploits of many of the Medal Of Honor precipitants, SEALs, Special Forces that were in impossible situations and made it through them. They are impossible except with help form above.
