Bear and Share the Burdens

1 Brethren, if a man is1 overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of agentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.  
2 aBear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill bthe law of Christ.  
3 For aif anyone thinks himself to be something, when bhe is nothing, he deceives himself.  
4 But alet each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and bnot in another.  
5 For aeach one shall bear his own load.  

Be Generous and Do Good

6 aLet him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.  
7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for awhatever a man sows, that he will also reap.  
8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap aeverlasting life.  
9 And alet us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap bif we do not lose heart.  
10 aTherefore, as we have opportunity, blet us do good to all, cespecially to those who are of the household of faith.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Galatians 5:26   Galatians 6:2 >>


Galatians 6:1

Brethren, if a man be overtaken in any fault - By surprise, ignorance, or stress of temptation. Ye who are spiritual - Who continue to live and walk by the Spirit. Restore such an one - By reproof, instruction, or exhortation. Every one who can, ought to help herein; only in the spirit of meekness - This is essential to a spiritual man; and in this lies the whole force of the cure. Considering thyself - The plural is beautifully changed into the singular. Let each take heed to himself. Lest thou also be tempted - Temptation easily and swiftly passes from one to another; especially if a man endeavours to cure another without preserving his own meekness.
