BIBLE STUDY WITH ME | Galatians 1

It's time for another #BibleStudyWithMe series and OH MAN am I excited for this one! As you can see, we will be going through the book of #Galatians. 💛
A friend recommended Galatians as being a great book to follow our James BSWM series, and I couldn't agree more. Here's why: in James we talked a lot about how faith without works is dead (2:17). Works don't earn our salvation, but they are a natural, necessary byproduct of genuine faith. In Galatians, Paul is rebuking those in the churches of Galatia for teaching and believing they have to earn their faith through adherence to the law, which was the opposite of the gospel he had given to them. Which poses the question: if it's not about the law, what even is the purpose of the law? And if our works don't earn salvation, yet they still matter, then how can we go about living the way God has called us to live, without believing that our doing so earns us any sort of merit? Galatians is going to bring clarity to these issues. 🙌🏼
In Galatians chapter 1, Paul is bringing hard truth because he is not worried about pleasing people, but serving God. When our aim is to please people, we can tend to soften the truth, but when we are driven by a desire to serve God, then the PURPOSE of God frees us from the need for people's approval. ✨
There is so much GOODNESS packed into this chapter, and I can't wait to study it with you in this #BibleVideo. Don't forget to leave a comment down below letting me know what you learned from this chapter, and what verse(s) stood out to you most. 😊

“For am I now seeking the approval or man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ." | Galatians 1:10

[@kacinicole]

THE PURPOSE OF GOD FREES US FROM BEING BOUND BY THE APPROVAL OF PEOPLE (Galatians 1:10). 🙌🏼What did you learn from this chapter? What verse(s) stood out to you most?

[@bubbadaniels293]

Rti

[@alexisday8407]

Please start doing these series again. It has really helped me with my walk with God.

[@bethprather9241]

I'm 56 and Galations is probably my favorite book... It is overwhelming awesome truth that disputes myths or other thoughts.I love the way he presents the real truth

[@kathyfonseca4154]

I love that Paul changed his life. Paul was a great teacher and once he figured it out he knew there was no other way but Gods way

[@michealapoindexter4112]

We can’t please man, I get that. But what is so interesting to me is we aren’t even called to please God but to serve him, which is such a different posture. Pleasing him would be “How can I make you happy?” Which could almost lead to feeing justified by your works, seeking out “big accomplishments” by the world’s standards. But serving... to humble yourself and ask him to use you however he wants to to advance his kingdom, is such a different posture. It looks for no approval, just direction. I hope all that makes sense. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@kacinicole]

Yes!!! That distinction stood out to me too. Love the thoughts you shared here!

[@damionboyd1963]

It’s true that we aren’t called to please God but that’s mainly because we already are pleasing to him. So it would be impossible to do to begin with. It’s like trying to win a game you already won.

[@keithgray3352]

Such a amazing way to put it really perspective changing🤠💙

[@iyanuoluwafolarin6192]

Revelation 4:11 God created all things for His pleasure. We are to please God.

[@SavannahJean]

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! we need more youtuber expressing their faith! so inspiring to me as a small youtuber trying to share my faith!

[@naseebah5506]

I just subscribed to your channel I hope you continue to make videos sharing your faith and I pray God increases you in your faith, love, joy, gentleness, kindness, goodness, self-control, peace, and patience. Ameen. ❤️

[@kacinicole]

Amen! 💛

[@kacinicole]

Amen!!!! And that is so cool to hear, love that 😊

[@naseebah5506]

I think the purpose of God is to please him and serve him because he loves us so much we want to get closer to him. ❤️

[@kacinicole]

Yes! The end goal of everything is to glorify Him 💛

[@constancelindsey9170]

I love your "style" of teaching the Word! I have learned so much by your style. I have been studying the Bible for a long time and just came across your videos. You have a gift in teaching! Thank you so much for taking the time and the effort in teaching God's Word......I truly appreciate it! I will share your videos. God bless!

[@kacinicole]

This comment means so much, thank you Constance! I am so happy to hear my videos have been helpful and appreciate you sharing them 😊

[@rebeccacarraway480]

It is quite edifying to see a young person actually studying God’s word. Thank you Kaci. You give me hope!

[@meganjones6044]

Kaci, you are wonderful! It's amazing how God is using you to encourage people to act on their faith and what they receive from the word. Your point about naturally caring less about your image and what others think of you through your desire to walk with God was what I needed to hear right now. I've been watching since your bible study in James, and I want to send you some admiration. Keep doing what you're doing, it's inspiring and enlightening.

[@kacinicole]

Hi Megan - this is so so encouraging! I'm so thankful God is using these videos in your life and that they have been helpful. Thank you for this kind comment 😊

[@tabitharodriguez6384]

I absolutely love this! This is so helpful. Thank you so much

[@caroleeasy97]

My first time to your channel, and I enjoyed watching it. It really helped me to understand the chapter. I must say it is really refreshing when young people like you have committed your life to the Lord. I have a 19 years old and my desire is to see him serve the Lord. Keep holding on to your faith, and I am looking forward to your explanation for chapter 2 blessings.

[@Ru-eg2lz]

I love the in-depth studies you do at the end of your videos! They help me to focus on certain truths as I walk into my day 🤍

[@dorisdancy609]

I love your natural and easy conversational way of teaching the Word of God. This was an awesome session, with profound and thought provoking GEMS that make us more aware, more knowledgeable, and more determined to follow Christ in a world that seems to have turned its back on Him. I can't wait to hear and learn more.

[@RaginiBhatt]

This was so wonderfully explained and i thank our Lord who is using you as well for His Glory and kingdom. Stay blessed dear sister in Chirst.

[@ashleytunny]

Coming back to these videos to study Galatians again. Thank you for this resource!

[@MsTropicalRookie]

i just discovered your channel. loved this study. All books of the bible are important. Galatians is also such an important book for us as believers to understand correctly the way God meant for it to be understood and no other way. Romans and Galatians i remember early on trying to avoid these books because some of what Paul was saying i didn't really understand at first but after praying for understanding God has helped me to grasp the wonderful truth in this letter and how wonderful it is to be free in Christ.

[@stevenmyers1090]

I love your thoughts on needing the approval of others less as we seek God more. Thanks for sharing!

[@jamiemichels9509]

Kaci, thank you for preparing a study that includes reading the Word. I too just completed leading a study in James and was praying for the next book- and the Spirit lead me to Galatians. Love how you emphasized we are to speak Truth without fear of being “liked”. You are a wonderful encouragement.

[@TheFlipSideStudio_]

I know you uploaded this video 2 years ago but I have been following along since the first videos you uploaded and I can’t thank you enough. I am able to understand more in detail the word.

[@Sabgoed]

I really enjoy these Bible studies with you. keep them coming.

[@marylee2672]

Amen!🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤

[@kaileyspencer2175]

So amazing! Thank you for sharing this study with us and making it easier for me to study the word without being overwhelmed.

[@johnmartin5257]

I am going through my study of Galatians a second time and found your video. I love your thoughts on this and it help me dive deeper and examine this chapter in a way I hadn’t before. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us!

[@HeyTripleJ]

I pray so deeply that my unborn son one day he a man of God with a leading to seek Him and even from a young age be a mighty little man of faith in Christ! To grow and teach others and go out and make disciples! This is my prayer, seeing you, a young woman who loves God truly not just saying it but living that love OUT, is so encouraging!!!!

[@HeyTripleJ]

Ps he is due in ONE month :))

[@kiannasooblessed]

Thank you so much for this breakdown of chapter 1!

[@josephavila271]

Thank you so much for this study! Praise God Almighty!

[@lauramcbrayer9591]

I absolutely loved this study! I searched but Galatians 1 study and came across your channel. You are so sweet and kind!! So happy to see you tubers displaying their faith so fearlessly💕

[@Ritch_]

This Bible study is amazing thank you ‼️‼️

[@jeff_c3083]

LOVE THIS SERIES!! It is so helpful to hear other people’s thoughts on passages and have then walk you through the bible! i have struggled with reading the bible in the past because i find my self confused or not putting things together but these videos help me so so much! God is definitely working through you and helping so many people like me who struggle reading the word!! THANK YOU!!

[@user-jb2jy1ur5p]

Me and my friend are doing a bible study and this was a great help to us. Thank you ❤

[@sandipierce302]

I LOVE THE BOOK OF GALATIANS! PRAISE THE LORD! I HAVE ACCEPTED JESUS CHRIST AS MY PERSONAL SAVIOR AND LORD!

[@nateabraham]

Context defines meaning! I try and do that every time before I start a book!Thank you for walking through the purpose and intent of Paul writing to the church in Galatia. Not many do state the context anymore. If we don’t know the context, principles cannot properly be drawn out. Truth is there, but we must take truth out of the context it is written in. Thank you. You have encouraged me.

[@TyGee777]

This was excellent! Look at God building HIS church! It makes me so happy to see every joint supplying; being active in the Body of Christ, at large.

[@ciasheffer3757]

Thank you so much for this!!! I’ve been wanting to go through Galatians!! Thank you for all your love!

[@theboldencourager5919]

I love this! I’ve struggled with my desire to please others and I’m learning to please God first. I appreciate your perspective and insight. You’re awesome! ☺️

[@elizabethvillanueva744]

Really great! I love the way you explained each verse. Big help for me to easily understand. Thank you so much miss Nicole. God bless!

[@melaniejon5048]

First time coming across your channel. I so appreciate the way you teach how to study the Bible as well as the points within the chapter your reading. Love that you make it personal and share your feelings. Thank you. GB.

[@carleybarnes4365]

Already loving this Bible study! ❤️🙏🏻

[@kacinicole]

Ah I'm so happy to hear that - so glad you are doing it with me! 💛

[@vinhr1]

Thank you so much for this. This is my first in depth study into the Bible. I’m going to watch all of your videos to get more enlightenment.

[@pre-vet3697]

Thank you for allowing yourself to be used by god. He really spoke to me today.

[@GorgeousGlenn_]

Thank you so much! You have inspired me!!💝

[@hennadiimarchenko5483]

Thanks a lot from Ukraine with love!

[@Charlotte-gb7ru]

💜 Thank you for more amazing content. I find verse 10 to be really powerful, definitely a good verse to pray on for a while.

[@kacinicole]

Yes, totally agree! And thank you for the encouraging words 😊

[@morrismak]

One thing that jumped out at me was that when Paul talked about how good he was when he was persecuting Christians and how well he knew the law, his mindset back then before he converted into a Christian must have been fill with big ego and pride. This made me thing of my life where my career and work (even work for God) have brought me pride rather than simple joy for doing God's work.

[@bethanyclark9105]

this will be the first study I'm doing with you! I absolutely love your channel! I've recently come back to the faith and I just found you on here and it's honestly so refreshing, I love how God is using you to share His word in such a clear, understandable way. You're awesome girl!

[@kacinicole]

Oh my goodness that is amazing! I am so so happy you are joining for the study! I'm so honored God could use my videos in your life - and thank you so much for this encouraging comment 💛 so excited to know Him more through this book 😊

[@maddiellewellyn7175]

this was amazing! i’m glad i studied it with you because it would’ve been very easy to take it out of context if i hadn’t listened in a different perspective! thank you so much for the encouraging words! love the verses 19-22 because it means you don’t have to have fame and glory to be with God! keep up the great work 👍🏼👍🏼

[@kacinicole]

I'm so glad it was helpful! Yes that's one big reason I love the Bible Project videos because it's so easy to misinterpret without context. Also love the verses you shared - such good points 🙌🏼

[@annatope1031]

I just started this (recently finished the Ruth study). I LOVE IT!!!!

[@karencuyangoan197]

very well said and i am blessed with w the scripture!

[@latashahall1873]

Just started Galatians! I was led here by one of my favorite scriptures, which is Galatians 5:22 (fruit of the Spirit). I am looking forward to getting a better understanding through your bible study. Thanks!

[@haileykeller8357]

You are so awesome and I love your heart for the Lord! Your videos inspire me and always encourage me!

[@kacinicole]

Aw this is so encouraging! I am SO happy to hear they encourage you!! 💛

[@kenleeburton3843]

Loved it as usual! It was a great study that i’m so blessed to have gotten to watch and grow through.

[@kacinicole]

Aw praise God I'm so glad!

[@FloridaSalon]

Wonderful presentation young lady. I very much enjoyed this.

[@ruthgabriel5106]

Good understanding and explanation of this book.well done

[@adventureinlife7700]

Because of my travels I have been to many different churches over the years and it’s amazing, in a sad way, how common it now seems to be for church leaders to add their own unique rules/laws to gospel. They all for the most part have the same, true, core message of the Gospel but to varying degrees had added to it. Some Cross Reference verses: Deuteronomy 4:2 Romans 16:17 Deuteronomy 12:32 Oh and Revelations 22:18-19 ...some very sobering words right there. Not that I ever wanted to but surely after reading that I ever more do not want to add or take away from God’s Holy Word, the Gospel of Jesus. Glad I could be hear and apart of this Bible study. Tomorrow I will watch the second video in this series and get caught up with you all.

[@patriciasanchez3519]

I loved your study, it was fabulous 👏

[@oluwadamilojuoreofe9471]

You're amazing kaci, your Videos are so helpful. This is only my second time watching and I've gained so much from you. thank you, thank you very much. Thank you for yielding to the call of God over your life. I pray for strength and grace for you to do all what he has called you to do. In Jesus name. Amen! (Much love from Nigeria)

[@user-lp8uk8ob7b]

Amen.. I'm reading Galatians 2

[@reinaldoadg]

Thanks for the teaching Kaci! I did listened to you & background instrumental gym song while I did my workout 😂💪Nice way you put about how Paul shared the word of God straight way! Also I like the way you said something like "you maybe don’t like to hear but I am bringing a message from God” Powerful! Most the time I don’t worried what people think about what I say about Jesus! Thou sometimes I do think how they will judge me or somethig like that! But your message today encourage me to share the good news with more “energy” Thanks again! Have a blessed sunday!

[@jeffreyco7800]

Your so beautiful...and fluently explains the galatians, it inspires me more to serve God

Hello Kaci, just recently did a KZbin search for “Bible Study” and now I’m subscribed to a few new channels. Yours being one of them. Glad I found your channel just as your beginning a new series. I will be sure to participate and give feedback on each video in this new Bible study series. Looking forward to what everyone else has to say as well. 😀 ~Divided we fail, we fall. United we still can fall but it is much easier to get back on our feet again and defend one another against the enemy.~

[@kacinicole]

I'm so happy you'll be joining for the study, and happy to have you here!

[@adventureinlife7700]

Kaci Nicole And thank you for the reply Kaci. Such a simply kind act and yet it had the power to indirectly... direct me to (this happens to be the American Standard Version) Psalms 37:23 “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him; though he may stumble, he will never fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.” What I receive from this is yes, throughout our lives, we will stumble but the Lord will not let our stumbling destroy us.
