OUTLINE:

Gal 6:9-10 [Amplified]
Let us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we do not give in. So then, while we [as individual believers] have the opportunity, let us do good to all people [not only being helpful, but also doing that which promotes their spiritual well-being], and especially [be a blessing] to those of the household of faith (born-again believers).

Gal 6:9-10 [Message]
So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith.

Jas 1:25 [Amplified]
But he who looks carefully into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and faithfully abides by it, not having become a [careless] listener who forgets but [a]an active doer [who obeys], he will be blessed and favored by God in what he does [in his life of obedience].

Jas 1:25 [Message]
But whoever catches a glimpse of the revealed counsel of God-the free life!-even out of the corner of his eye, and sticks with it, is no distracted scatterbrain but a man or woman of action. That person will find delight and affirmation in the action.

The Body of Christ
We are held together by individual parts, each of us "supplying" connectivity and support as "joints" do in a human body. Imagine a human body without any tendons or ligaments (those things that hold the bones in place) - we'd have a pile of bones! This is what Satan desires ("a house divided against itself will not stand" - Mt 12:25).

"do not give the devil an opportunity"
How might we do this? We "forget" about the Lord who has shown us grace, our eyes are diverted from Christ, and since we cannot multitask, we have opened the door up to Satan.

The Schemes of the Devil
Satan wants me to look out at all of you and see your flesh as "who you are", but I refuse. If you are saved, you have been made new. I choose to see you as God does, as holy. Your flesh, though irritating, is temporal.

Gal 5:15 [Amplified]
But if you bite and devour one another [in bickering and strife], watch out that you [along with your entire fellowship] are not consumed by one another.

God's Household
Satan devises endless schemes to divide the Church and the churches. The easiest way is to get people looking at others' flesh by their flesh. (2Co 5:16)

"according to the flesh"
Paul describes the flesh's inability to fellowship with spiritual man, to "see it all as truth" - "But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light" (Eph 5:13). The flesh is blind, incapable of discerning the inherent goodness of a "new creature" (2Co 5:17).

God's Household
Satan devises endless schemes to divide the Church and the churches. The easiest way is to get people looking at others' flesh by their flesh. (2Co 5:16)

God's Household
There's no such thing as inconsistency between Jesus Christ, the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit. As a godly church, our goal is to "recognize no one according to the flesh", but rather by the Spirit (aka by Christ, by the Word).

"ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME."
Jesus refused to tolerate irreverence toward His Father in His Father's house (the Temple). Do YOU have this same "zeal", or do you tolerate irreverence because of partiality, or weakness, etc.?

Grace Isn't Always "nice"
Man has pigeonholed grace into a one-sided thing, where it is defined as all things that accommodate man's predisposition about God's benevolence towards His creatures. These are the inventions of man's flesh.

Grace and Works
Acting on behalf of the Lord, in grace, is a good work, no matter how it offends those effected. "Flipping tables" (ala Jn 2:15) sends the right message that, "This is the LORD'S house!"

Grace and Works
Any confusion about works is preceded by confusion about grace!

Jesus' Gracious Words
By grace, at salvation, YOU have been given a new nature. Like Jesus' perfect nature, your new nature cannot say/do anything inconsistent with grace! Your old nature is just the opposite, hence Paul's own admission of his struggle between the two in Ro 7.

The New Creature
A true believer, a person who has been saved by grace through faith, has been made "new". This new nature is a partaker of the divine nature of Jesus Christ. This is a grace gift given at salvation, or not at all. It is not something a person chooses after being saved; for that supposition implies a person has not been truly saved from sin (Ro 6:2).
