The Gospel in Galatians
Our Goal
To reflect on our own
understanding of the gospel.
Allow God’s Spirit to spark a
spiritual revival in our hearts as we rediscover what God has done for
us in Christ.
Ang Ating Mithiin. Upang pag-isipan ang sariling pagkaunawa sa ebanghelyo. ¶ Pahintulutan ang Espiritu ng Diyos na pasiklabin ang isang espirituwal na ribaybal sa ating puso habang tinutuklas natin muli ang ginawa ng Diyos para sa atin kay Cristo.

7. Living by the Spirit
Key Text
Galatians 5:16 ESV
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.”
Susing Talata. Subalit sinasabi ko, lumakad kayo sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu, at hindi ninyo bibigyang kasiyahan ang mga pagnanasa ng laman.

8. flesh and Spirit in conflict
Living by the Spirit
Initial Words
As believers we possess two natures, the flesh and the Spirit, and they are in conflict.
Although our sinful nature will always be “prone” to wander from God, if we are willing to surrender to His Spirit, we do not have to be enslaved to the desires of the flesh.
flesh and Spirit in conflict
Panimulang Salita. Bilang mga mananampalataya ay meron tayong dalawang likas, ang laman at ang Espiritu, at sila’y naglalaban. ¶ Bagaman ang ating makasalanang likas ay laging “lakahilig” na gumala mula sa Diyos, kung nahahanda tayong pasakop sa Kanyang Espiritu, ay hindi tayo kelangang mapaalipin sa mga kagustuhan ng laman.

10. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.”
Living by the Spirit
1. Conflicting Desires
Galatians 5:16-18 NKJV
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.”
1. Mga Kagustuhang Naglalaban. “Subalit sinasabi ko, lumakad kayo ayon sa Espiritu, at huwag ninyong bigyang-kasiyahan ang mga pagnanasa ng laman, sapagkat ang laman ay nagnanasa laban sa Espiritu, at ang Espiritu ay laban sa laman; sapagkat ang mga ito ay laban sa isa’t isa, upang hindi ninyo magawa ang mga bagay na nais ninyong gawin. ¶ Subalit kung kayo’y pinapatnubayan ng Espiritu, kayo ay wala sa ilalim ng kautusan” (Galacia 5:16-18).

11. Conduct in the Old Testament
1. Conflicting Desires
Walking in the Spirit
Walking” is a metaphor drawn from the Old Testament that refers to the way a person should behave.
Conduct in the Old Testament
simply was not defined as “walking” but more particularly as
“walking in the law.”
Lumalakad Ayon sa Espiritu. Ang “paglalakad” ay isang metapora na kinuha mula sa Lumang Tipan na tumutukoy sa paraang dapat ikilos ng isang tao. ¶ Ang pagkilos sa Lumang Tipan ay di lang ipinaliwanag na “”paglakad” kundi mas buong katiyakan na “lumalakad ayon sa kautusan.”

12. Paul’s comments about “walking
1. Conflicting Desires
Walking in the Spirit
Paul’s comments about “walking
in the Spirit” are not contrary to obedience to the law.
The genuine obedience that God desires never can be achieved by outward compulsion but only by an inward motivation produced by the Spirit (Gal. 5:18).
Ang komento ni Pablo tungkol sa “paglakad sa Espiritu” ay hindi kataliwas sa pagsunod sa kautusan. ¶ Ang tunay na pagsunod na gusto ng Diyos ay hindi kelanman matatamo sa pamamagitan ng panlabas na pamimilit kundi sa pamamagitan lang ng panloob na pampapasigla na pinalitaw ng Espiritu(Galacia 5:18).

13. 1. Conflicting Desires
The Christian Conflict
The struggle refers specifically to the inward tug-of-war that exists in the Christian.
Because humans are born in harmony with the desires of the flesh (Rom. 8:7), it is only when we are born anew by the Spirit that a real spiritual conflict begins to emerge (John 3:6).
Ang Pakikipagbakang Kristiyano. Ang pakikipagpunyagi ay buong katiyakang tungkol sa panloob na labanan na umiiral sa Kristiyano. ¶ Dahil ang tao ay ipinanganak na kaayon sa kagustuhan ng laman (Roma 8:7), kapag lang ipinanganak na muli sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu na ang isang tunay na labanang espirituwal ang magpapasimulang lumitaw (Juan 3:6).

14. We are literally on both sides of the battle at once.
1. Conflicting Desires
The Christian Conflict
We are literally on both sides of the battle at once.
The spiritual part of us desires what is spiritual and detests the flesh.
The fleshly part of us, however, longs for the things of the flesh and opposes what is spiritual.
Literal na magkasabay na nasa magkabilang panig tayo ng labanan. ¶ Ang espirituwal na bahagi natin ay gusto ang espirituwal at kinamumuhian ang laman. ¶ Ang malaman na bahagi natin, gayunman, ay nagnanais sa mga bagay ng laman at nilalabanan ang espirituwal.

15. Because the converted mind is too weak to resist the flesh by itself,
1. Conflicting Desires
The Christian Conflict
Because the converted mind is too weak to resist the flesh by itself,
the only hope we have of subduing the flesh is by making a daily decision to side with the Spirit against our sinful selves.
This is why Paul is so insistent that we choose to walk in the Spirit.
Dahil ang nabagong isip mismo ay napakahina sa pagtanggi sa laman, ang pag-asa lang na meron tayo na mapasuko ang laman ay magpasya araw-araw na pumanig sa Espiritu laban sa makasalanan nating sarili. ¶ Ito ang dahilan kung bakit talagang iginigiit ni Pablo sa piliin nating lumakad ayon sa Espiritu.

16. Living by the Spirit
2. Desires of the Flesh
Galatians 5:19-21 NKJV
Now the works of the flesh are…adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies,
outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissentions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries….”
2. Ang Kagustuhan ng Laman. “Ngayon ang mga gawa ng laman ay…pakikiapid, karumihan, kahalayan, pagsamba sa diyus-diyosan, pangkukulam, alitan, pagtatalo, paninibugho, ¶ pagkagalit, pagkamakasarili, pagkakabaha-bahagi, mga pagkakampi-kampi, pagkainggit, paglalasing, kalayawan…” (Galacia 5:19-21).

17. 2. Desires of the Flesh
Two Differences
First, even though Paul contrasts the two lists, he does not refer to them in the same manner.
He labels the vice list as the “works of the flesh” but the virtue list as the “fruit of the Spirit.”
Dalawang Pagkaka-iba. Una, kahit pa pinagpaparis ni Pablo ang dalawang listahan, hindi niya tinutukoy sila sa katulad na paraan. ¶ Tinatawag niya ang listahan ng bisyo na “”mga gawa ng laman” pero ang listahan ng buti na bilang ang “bunga ng Espiritu.”

18. plural “works” singular “fruit”
2. Desires of the Flesh
Two Differences
Second, the vice list is labeled plural: “works of the flesh.” “Fruit of the Spirit,” is singular.
plural “works”
singular “fruit”
This suggest that the life lived in the flesh can promote nothing more than division, turmoil, divisiveness, and disunity.
In contrast, the life lived in the Spirit produces one fruit which manifests itself in nine qualities that foster unity.
Ikalawa, ang listahan ng bisyo ay tinatawag na maramihan: “mga gawa ng laman.” Ang “bunga ng Espiritu,” ay isahan. ¶ Nagmumungkahi ito na ang buhay sa laman ay maaaring magsusulong ng hindi hihigit sa pagkakahati, gulo, kalagayang hati, at hindi pagkakasundo. ¶ Kataliwas nito, ang buhay sa Espiritu ay nagpapalitaw ng isang bunga na makikita sa siyam na katangian na nagpapaunlad sa pagkaka-isa.

19. Against such there is no law.”
Living by the Spirit
3. Desires of the Spirit
Galatians 5:22, 23 NKJV
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.
Against such there is no law.”
3. Kagustuhan ng Espiritu. “Subalit ang bunga ng Espiritu ay pag-ibig, kagalakan, kapayapaan, pagtitiyaga, kagandahang-loob, kabutihan, katapatan, kaamuan, at pagpipigil sa sarili. ¶ Laban sa mga ito ay walang kautusan (Galacia 5:22, 23).

20. 3. Desires of the Spirit
Relation to Ten Commandments
The Ten Commandments are not an alternative to love; they help guide us in how we are to show love, both to God and to humankind.
However much it might transcend the letter of the law, love is not in conflict with the law.
Kaugnayan sa Sampung Utos. Ang Sampung Utos ay hindi isang alternatibo sa pag-ibig; makakatulong ang mga ito na akayin tayo sa kung paano ipakita ang pag-ibig, sa Diyos at sa tao. ¶ Gayunman, bagaman maaaring lampasan nito ang letra ng kautusan, ang pag-ibig ay hindi laban sa kautusan.

21. 3. Desires of the Spirit
The Virtue of Love
Love should be seen as the cardinal Christian virtue that is the key to all other virtues.
Love is the preeminent fruit of the Spirit, and it should define the life and attitudes of every Christian, however difficult at times it might be to show love.
Ang Kabutihan ng Pag-ibig. Ang pag-ibig ay dapat na makita bilang pangunahing kabutihan ng Kristiyano na pinakasusi ng lahat ng ibang kabutihan. ¶ Ang pag-ibig ay ang nakatataas na bunga ng Espiritu, at ito dapat ang magtatakda ng buhay at saloobin ng bawat Kristiyano, gaano man kahirap kung minsan na ipakita ang pag-ibig.

22. 1. “Walk” in the Spirit (vs 16 “to follow”). 2. “To be led” (vs 18).

2. “To be led” (vs 18).
3. “To live” (vs 25).
4. “To walk” (vs 25 “to conform”).

Daan sa Tagumpay. Limang susing pandiwa ang naglalarawan ng uri ng buhay na pinaghaharian ng Espiritu: ¶ 1. “Lumakad” ayon sa Espiritu (talatang 16 “sumunod”). 2. “Pinapatnubayan” (talatang 18). 3. “Nabubuhay” (alatang 25). 4. “Lumakad” (talatang 25 “umayon”). 5. “Ipinako sa krus” (talatang 24).
