If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
Galatians 5:25 (NKJV)
I love these popcorn girls! They point us to the saying, “Girls Eat Pop Corn,” a mnemonic device for the order of four short books in the New Testament. Coming right after First and Second Corinthians, these four letters Paul wrote to his dear friends and new believers. To help us remember their sequence, we can say “Girls Eat Pop Corn” for “Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians.” Another trick is to say, “General Electric Power Company.”
This week we explore Galatians. May you remember these verses every time you pop a batch of popcorn!
