Reminder in Galatians 6:16

... what counts is a new creation. Peace and mercy to all who follow this rule, even to the Israel of God. — Galatians 6:16

Paul ends his breath-taking letter to Galatians with this incredible reminder: both Jews and Gentiles who are justified by faith in Jesus Christ are God's people, his Israel. Like Abraham who left on a long journey trusting in God's promise, so also all who are spiritual Israel follow God's lead and cling to God's promise through faith in Jesus Christ.

 Like those who were delivered in the Exodus by the power of God and with the sprinkled blood of the Passover lamb, God's people today have been blood-bought and delivered from their bondage to sin and death. Here there is neither Jew nor Gentile, slave nor free, male nor female, because in Israel, we are God's people and the recipients of his mercy and his peace.

Ways

. Deuteronomy 32:4

He is the Rock,  his works are perfect, 

 and all his ways are just.

 A faithful God  who does no wrong,

 upright  and just is he.

. Psalm 51:13

I will teach transgressors your ways, 

 so that sinners  will turn back to you.

. Proverbs 5:21

For your ways are in full view  of the Lord,

 and he examines  all your paths.

. Lamentation 3:40

Let us examine our ways and test them, 

 and let us return to the Lord.

. Revelation 15:3

and sang the song of God’s servant  Moses  and of the Lamb: 

  “Great and marvellous are your deeds, 

 Lord God Almighty. 

 Just and true are your ways, 

 King of the nations.
