Living by the Spirit

This is a study of the book of Galatians for personal or group study. Paul wants us to learn to live by the Spirit rather than by any list of rules. Living by the Spirit is dynamic and vibrant, and it allows God free reign to guide us and shape us as He wishes. Life by the Spirit frees us from any constraints or expectations that actually limit us; it is where God puts the Law in our minds and writes it on our hearts (Jeremiah 31.33). God wants to set us free to live in the fullness of His Spirit, in the power of His grace, and by the fruit of His Spirit ripening in us.
