Title: The person who stumbles
Galatians (17) A person who stumbles (Galatians 3:23-29)
"Living by Faith"
The law is the “elementary teacher” who leads us to Jesus (verse 24). In this verse, ‘elementary school teacher’ is expressed as ‘student teacher’ in the previous Bible. Monghak teacher refers to the decoration of the Seodang. In today's parlance, it's a 'trainer who trains'. In other words, the law is to point out and scold people when they go astray. If you depend too much on your elementary school teacher, the law will make your life difficult.
Be sure of becoming a child of God by faith and know it as the greatest blessing (verse 26). The blessing of becoming a child of God is the primary blessing that is more precious than any other blessing. In fact, the life after salvation is a life lived as a bonus. In the same way, consider the blessings you receive after salvation as additional blessings. A truly blessed life is a life where you can give the best thanks even with only the primary and basic blessings of salvation.
Some saints sometimes feel good inside their wives when they see mistakes and mistakes. It is not good because there is an excuse to attack his wife, but because he thinks that it is good because he can show a blank life by covering up the mistake. Such a life is the life that those who know grace should pursue. When someone else makes such a mistake, do not try to downplay that mistake as an opportunity, but use that mistake as an opportunity to show your generosity and a life of blankness.
<The person who makes people stumble>
Another important life is a life that strives to become one in Jesus (verses 28-29). God wants to be one, and the devil wants to divide. In life, there are people who try to become one, and there are people who prevent them from becoming one and cause others to stumble. Usually, the following types of people stumble those around them:
First, he must be a captain. Such a person causes others to stumble, and eventually he goes out and pioneers a new one. And he says he has a mission to pioneer. However, it is not a mission to scatter the community by asserting itself. You should have a sense of ownership, but an incorrect sense of ownership without serving causes a big problem.
Second, it is the person who says, “Let’s see if we can do it without me!” It is better that no one has such a heart. In fact, there is no such thing anymore. It's good to have pride, but too much pride harms yourself and others.
Third, a person who does not like to see what others are good at. If others do well, do not envy with jealousy, but rather have the holy envy of wanting to be like you too. Unsuccessful people are jealous of other people's strengths, but successful people are eager to learn what they are good at.
Fourth, someone who is trying to be popular. “Good things” are better than “pretty things”, and “good things” are better than “good things”. Choose the right path over the good path, and choose the desirable path over your favorite path. Even if you understand the other person's situation, you should not give up on the right path. Some saints drink together to communicate with unbelievers as part of evangelizing them. It is good to communicate with others, but you must not lose your identity because of it.
Fifth, people who are too obsessed with material things. The devil somehow puts humans under material civilization. So, just like when we tempted Jesus, we still throw a tempting message into the hearts of the saints: “I will give you the glory under the heavens, so please bow down to me once.” Jesus adamantly refused material tests. A person who lives by faith like this should not let the smell of money smell in his life for any reason, but only the smell of service and sharing.
