O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified? This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh? Galatians 3:1-3 (NKJV)
The law is the DIY(Do It Yourself) system. It focuses you on the I, Me, Mine, Myself attitude. It’s the what I must do.
It started in the garden where the serpent lured Adam and Eve to do something themselves in order to become. They sinned, they fell, and brought death into the world.
Christ is the GDI(God Did It)Way of Life. This is where Adam and Eve began and lived before the fall. God Himself created and made them in His own image and likeness, they already were like Him, they didn’t have to do anything to become.
God has recreated us in Christ. We are New Creations in Christ. We don’t have to do anything to become what we already are in Christ. We only have to believe that we are what God has made us to be and says we are. It’s from here that we act, walk, and live as we ought, even as children of God.
