2 | need information on galatians Chapter 6 | Heb 3:12 | azurelaw | 209100 | ||
Dear sheltona, Welcome to the forum. I believe V14-15 in chapter 5 is helpful for our understanding of the passage you are in question. Gal 5:14 For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, "YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." 5:15 But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another. Note that in previous chapters, Paul reproved the Galatians' returning to legalism instead of keeping their faith in the complete work of Christ's atonement. (Gal 1:6, 3:1) Now Paul talked about how to deal with weak believers who sinned in Ch 6:1-6. He admonished those who were spiritually matured (i.e. walk in the Spirit - ch 5:16) helped the sinning brothers (to recover from their sins) in meekness and with gentle heart, but NOT condemning others thus fall into the temptation of being boastful or self-righteous. For verse 2, "Love one another" is the commandment of Christ (John 15:12). We have to care about each other as believers are the body of Christ. When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it (1 Cor 12: 26). When helping the sinning brothers, one should also examine oneself as well for we also have our own weaknesses. Hope the above helpful. Shalom Azure |
