BLESSINGS OF FATHERLY ADVICE

My Dear Precious Child,
      In Paul's letter to the Galatian Christians, and to you, he was explicit in his exhortation and instructions about how to stay on the path that leads to righteousness and My blessings.  As he closed out his letter he instructed that if anyone in your church is sinning that they, and you, should gently set the person on the right path, avoiding any trap set for themselves, and you, to fall also into temptation. (Galatians 6:1)
    He wrote that it is every person's calling is to try to help other people by helping to carry their burdens, also.  However, he wrote that if anyone thinks that he is somehow better than other people when he is in fact nothing, he is deceiving himself.  Every person much check out his or her own condition to assess whether he or she is engaging in sins and whether he or she has reason to boast because the only reason to boast is if he has refused to yield to sin, and not because of the condition of someone else.  He reiterated that each person should carry his or her own responsibility toward the Gospel of Jesus Christ.(Galatians 6:2-5)
     Paul encouraged the Galatians that if anyone is instructed in the Word of Jesus Christ that he or she should share that truth with his or her instructor, making sure that the person knows that no one makes a fool out of Me, and that every person reaps what he or she has sown.  If the person has sown to the flesh then her or she will reap a harvest of corruption; but if the seed that he has sown in the earth is of My Spirit, then the person will reap a harvest of blessings from My Life.  He wrote that a person should never get tired of doing good and if you continue to sow seeds of goodness in your life that you will reap a harvest of goodness and blessings in your life on earth.  So he reiterated again that while you have the chance to do good to all people that you should take the opportunity, especially to your fellow Christians.  (Galatians 6:6-10)
    At the end of his stern letter, Paul wrote to the Galatians that the men who were trying to force them to be circumcised were making a play for human approval, hoping to escape persecution from the Jews for their being bound to the truth of the cross of Christ.  He accused the false prophets who came among them of being hypocrites because even though they were Judeo-Christians they did not follow the Law themselves, nor did they follow the prompting of My Holy Spirit.  He surmised that the false prophets wanted the Galatians to be circumcised so that the false prophets could boast about their physical observances of the Law, even though it is opposed to the gospel of grace in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. (Galatians 6:11-13)  
     Also in his closing remarks to the Galatians, in his letter Paul professed that the only thing of which he, himself, would boast is the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ.  He wrote that it is through it that he had been crucified to the world and the world had been crucified to him. (Galatians 6:14)
    To sum up the truth in his letter Paul wrote that to be circumcised or to not be circumcised means nothing.  He wrote that the only thing of importance is that a person is born of the Holy Spirit and baptized in the Holy Spirit.   He finished his letter to them by writing that peace and mercy would come upon everyone who followed that rule of Life.  (Galatians 6:15-16)
    Paul signed the letter as one who bore the marks of Jesus in his own body, meaning the scars of beatings by the Jews, and he blessed them by praying that My favor and the favor of Christ Jesus would always be with them and be with you.  So Be It, Amen.  (Galatians 6: 17-18)
    Your Father of Perpetual Truth
