Morning: The sermon, "He Became a Curse," looked at Galatians 3:10-14. In this passage, Paul explains that attempts to work our way into God's pleasure ultimately fail, because we are incapable of doing enough. We have all fallen short of God's glory, and therefore, we need to be rescued. Paul demonstrates from Scripture that the curse of God's wrath abides on us because we have failed to keep all of the law. He then reminds us that Jesus absorbed the full wrath of God, for the sins of the world, upon the cross. He took our curse upon himself, so that the favor of God might rest upon us. Thus, we are now acceptable to the Father, through faith in the Son.
Evening: We had our monthly business meeting.
