Already Here But Not Yet - 2024 Galatians Series: Part 10

•

We’re back!...and we’re still in Galatians 4! Can you believe it? Out of any chapter, we’re still here. It’s been quite the journey from a section of the letter that we used to rush through to now being a part of the letter that we are enjoying enough to devote a few weeks to it—We’ll finish it up today so that next week we can start on Chapter 5! In today’s talk Jay spends some time talking about the importance of context when it comes to Biblical scholarship--Knowing when things were written, to whom, why was it written, and what the cultural dynamics of the time were. We live in different times now. Or course this doesn’t mean everything Paul said was okay. We have to remember that it is okay to disagree with Paul! Agreeing or disagreeing, it doesn’t change the fact that context is important. What does Paul mean when he says to die to our flesh, and to pick up our cross? Did it mean something different back then than it does today? Is salvation a miracle? Does who we are play any role in our salvation? This talk addresses these and more! This year our Galatians series has really been cooking, and we’re so very excited about it!


This talk was given on April 7, 2024 from Seattle, Washington.

  • A Follower's Perspective

    52:15|
    What happens to the way we view society when we limit our perspective to being a follower of Jesus' teachings? Jay covers what is has meant to "put God first" and how that is radically different than the way that we might have learned. We hope that you are able to have good conversations with each other this week and find ways to love each other.revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • It's Time For a Reformation.

    01:07:15|
    Seeing ugliness.Making a shift. The time for a reformation is now. "And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good" - John Steinbeck"And you don't have to expect others to be perfect either" - Jay BakkerIt's never too late. revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • For the Least of These

    33:40|
    Straight from Matthew 25 today. It's too easy to push back on helping others and trying who decides who "deserves" it. The "Least of These" are all of us. It's everyone. Hope everyone has a great week. Love you all.revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • Galatians 2025: Part 10 - The Finale

    01:06:20|
    Galatians 2025: Part 10 - THE FINÁLEHow do you inherit "the Kingdom of God"? What even IS "the Kingdom of God"? What are the things that keep us from grace or allow us to live a full life of showing grace to others? Paul clearly describes characteristics for us to follow in order for people to know that we're following the example and teachings of Jesus. He also encourages RESTORATION! Who would have thought that he'd encourage us to promote building relationships and openness to the fact that people can change! You are loved and please help each other this week. revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • Galatians 2025: Part 9 - Instead of Loving One Another

    44:00|
    "I wish they would castrate themselves". Paul speaks about the contradictions that come together in grace in extreme terms! When we lack compassion, it's even more difficult to com to a place where we can show grace to others. "Justice has to have a bit of love in it, or it becomes cruelty". This is a great talk from Galatians 15 that includes one of the most important reminders "you shall love your neighbor as yourself". Hope you all have a great week. You are loved. revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • Galatians 2025: Part 8 - Love or Circumcision

    56:29|
    Some people think that grace and faith and forgiveness isn't enough. Paul warns about rebuilding the old laws and putting limitations on receiving these gifts. These "sacred cows" are a waste when we're looking for freedom. Hope you enjoy the latest edition of the Galatians series.

  • Why Revolution? (Brian Yarbrough)

    35:57|
    Why Revolution? I'll tell you why! I was fortunate enough to sit in for Jay, tell a little bit of my story and explain why I choose to support Revolution. We'd love to hear your stories of why you choose to support Revolution and how it has impacted your life over the years. This is a beautiful community and we appreciate all of your support. revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url

  • Love and Grace Is a Broken Record.

    01:06:55|
    It might feel like a broken record but Love and Grace are at the core of where Revolution comes from. The risk is that we think that we hear the message and don't need any reminders. A lot of times it takes seeing the need ourselves in order to take action. It's the 3rd week reading Galatians 3:28 (hence the broken record) but there was more to explore. Even when we feel like we're divided, we don't have to let our identity (politics, "jew or gentile") allow us to forget that we are ALL ONE.

  • Galatians - Part 7: The Creative Minority

    59:45|
    Jay covers the last part of Galatians 3 this week. It's all about inclusion! Exploring what would happen if our individual identities had no hierarchy over another. It takes a lot of courage to point our inequality, not just right in front of us with also with people that we don't have contact with. Are we really ready to be uncomfortable to reach the "promise land" without becoming bitter about the struggle that is involved? Can we be the creative minority to win the understanding of others without humiliation?Please reach out and support Revolution's work. It is greatly appreciated. You are all loved.revolutionchurch.cominstagram.com/revolutionchurch94x.com/Revolution_1994www.youtube.com/@RevolutionBroadcastinghttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7FXFBB8PSWEEC&source=url
