MINISTERING THE SPIRIT
Sunday Morning: March 2, 2003
Text: Galatians 3:2-6 "This
only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the
works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3. Are ye so
foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
4. Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.
5. He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit,
and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by
the hearing of faith? 6. Even as Abraham believed
God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness."
