Book of Galatians

Day 35

READ Galatians 6:1-5
Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves. Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else, for each one should carry their own load.

COMMENTARY:
In these verses, Paul exhorts believers to restore those who have fallen into sin with a spirit of gentleness, considering themselves lest they also be tempted. He emphasizes the importance of bearing one another’s burdens and fulfilling the law of Christ, urging each one to carry their own load and not to compare themselves with others.

Questions to ponder:

  • Consider the importance of bearing one another’s burdens and fulfilling the law of Christ. How can you support and encourage fellow believers in their walk with God?
  • Reflect on any areas of your life where you may be tempted to compare yourself with others. How can you embrace the unique calling and responsibilities God has given you?
