Sowing and Reaping
• Restoration and Bearing Burdens (v. 1-5): Believers are encouraged to restore those who are caught in sin gently, while watching themselves. They are to bear one another’s burdens, fulfilling the law of Christ, but each person should also examine their own work.
• Sowing and Reaping (v. 6-10): This section emphasizes the principle of sowing and reaping, encouraging believers to do good to everyone, especially to the family of faith, and to not grow weary in doing good, for in due season they will reap if they do not give up.
• Boasting Only in the Cross (v. 11-18): Paul discusses the motives of those who advocate for circumcision and contrasts it with his own boasting solely in the cross of Christ. He concludes by blessing peace and mercy upon those who follow this rule and wishing grace to all.
Living by the Spirit in Community: The chapter underscores the importance of living out one’s faith through acts of love, mutual support, and perseverance in good deeds, all while maintaining personal accountability and humility, ultimately guided by the principle of sowing to the Spirit.
