It's the Gospel, Stupid- Pnrt #16 Restoration Galatians 6: 1·5 by Pastor John
How do we handle the brother or sister who sins?
• We need to be ready _________ _
"Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gendy." Galatians 6:1
• We need to realize------------
"But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Ouist. But if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in a nother." Galatians 6:2·4
June 4th, 7:0G-8:00 P• We have an Open Prayer Room
for anyone who needs prayer. This room is open the 1st Monday of each month between 7:00 • 8:00 pm.
Someone will be available to pray with you.
