A NEW CREATION

Galatians 6:11-18

Key Verse 15

Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is a new creation.

1. Read verses 11-14. What did Paul say about his own writing? (11) What were the motives of those who insisted on circumcision? (12, 13) What was Paul’s one and only boast? (14a) How does Jesus’ cross impact our relationship to the world? (14b)

2. Read verse 15. What is the most important thing for us as believers? How did we become a new creation? How can we live as a new creation?

3. Read verses 16-18. What blessings come to those who follow this rule? (16a) Who is the “Israel of God”? (3:28-29; 4:26, 28) How did Paul share his agony? (17) What final blessing did he bestow upon them? (18)
