Keep Running Well

Paul laments that the people have been deceived he mourns that they were running well and someone had deceived them. He reminds them they are free and should use their freedom to serve one another. This text gives us appropriate caution against being deceived by others and being careful not to mislead others. It serves as an instruction to us that we ought to use our freedom well, and to use it to serve others, not to to serve our flesh.
