Spiritual leaders who truly love their congregation grieve when they succumb to false teaching.  Today we explore the pain that occurs in a pastor&#039;s heart and mind when the congregation forsakes grace and goes back to legalism.<br>
<br>
Justification by Faith – The Sentimental Argument<br>
Galatians 4:12-20<br>
<br>
I.	Paul Exhorts the Galatians to Become As He Is<br>
a.	Paul left the legalistic system of the Jewish law to bring the gospel to the Gentile Galatians. For I have also become like you.<br>
b.	Paul became like the Galatians in being free from the law. He now desires for them to become like Him in being free from legalistic bondage.<br>
II.	He reminds them of the good relationship they had. You did me no wrong.<br>
a.	Paul had become ill and had to stay in Galatia longer than he expected.<br>
b.	In this section Paul’s depth of love for the Galatians is strongly evident. <br>
c.	Paul saw the false sincerity of the false teachers.<br>
d.	Zeal for the wrong thing.<br>
III.	Paul’s Deep Concern for and Perplexity about the Galatians (vv.19-20)<br>
a.	He was not like them. He still loved them even though they had grown cold toward him in his absence.<br>
b.	Faithful ministers long for their spiritual children to have Christ formed in them.<br>
c.	Christ is not fully formed in people until they are brought from trusting in their own righteousness and come to fully rely on Jesus and His righteousness.<br>
d.	Though ministers too often find it necessary to reprove those they have to do with, yet this is no grateful work to them; they had much rather there was no occasion for it, and are always glad when they can see reason to change (Matthew Henry)]]></description>
