It is the fate of all men to have burdens 2Cor 5:4 Burdens are not always visible, consequently we need restraint and charity in our judgments of others Examine with me now two concepts regarding burdens as used in Gal 6:2, 5 and then one found in Psa 55:22

SELF ASSISTANCE (Every man shall bear his own burden) Gal 6:5 – Some burdens are non-transferable – "Burden" is from a Greek word which means "pack" - something to be borne, without reference to its weight Matt 11:30

SELF ASSISTANCE (Every man shall bear his own burden) Gal 6:5 – Each individual has his/her own responsibility No one can obey the Gospel for you 2Thess 1:8 No one can work for you Matt 25 No one can answer for you 2Cor 5:10; Rom 14:12 – It is foolish for one to try to get lost in the crowd and hide behind others to avoid his own burdens Heb 4:13

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 – Some burdens are shared with others Phil 2:4 – "Burden" here is from a Greek word which denotes a weight - anything pressing on one physically or that make a demand on one's resources whether physical or spiritual – The "key" to verse 2 is in verse 1 Seek to help or restore those who have strayed "Restore" = to set in joint again

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 – In spirit of meekness (not in wrath but gentle) Reproofs lose their effectiveness when given in the wrong spirit When given with loving concern and the proper attitude they will help bear the burden

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 – This burden includes other types of burdens Burden of sorrow Rom 12:15; 1Cor 12:26 Need for material things Jas 1:27; 2:15,16 (opportunity and ability governs responsibility)

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 – This burden includes other types of burdens Burden of sin (bond servant Rom 6:17; Heb 12:1) – Teaching 2Tim 2:2; Matt 28:19,20 – Warning the unruly 1Thess 5:14 – Pray for the lost Matt 5:44

MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 – This burden includes other types of burdens Burden of leadership – Elders Heb 13:17 – Preachers Eph 6:18-20 – Civil rulers 1Tim 2:1-2

DIVINE ASSISTANCE (Cast thy burden upon the Lord) Psa 55:22; 1Pet 5:7 – Some burdens are beyond the reach of human effort – "Not My will but thine be done" Matt 26:39 – God will either take the burden or He will give us strength to bear it 2Cor 12:7-10; 1Cor 10:13 – So with unbearable burdens, we should cast them upon the Lord 1Pet 5:7; Phil 4:5-7

SELF ASSISTANCE (Every man shall bear his own burden) Gal 6:5 MUTUAL ASSISTANCE (Bear ye one another's burdens) Gal 6:2 DIVINE ASSISTANCE (Cast thy burden upon the Lord) Psa 55:22; 1Pet 5:7

We must be willing to assume our own burdens (our own responsibilities) Become more conscious of the burdens of others (we are our brother's keeper) Take the burdens we can't handle to the Lord Some day we will lay all our burdens down That is why Jesus said "come unto me" Matt 11:28-30
