2012 Reading Through

Galatians 1-3 – November 23

11/23/2012

0 Comments

 
Paul pulls no punches as he writes this letter to the “churches of Galatia.” In Galatians 1:6, he says, “I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel.” There can be differing of opinion on many different things in the body of Christ, but teachers had come in preaching a “different gospel;” it was leading them away from saving faith in Jesus Christ. Paul makes it clear in Galatians 2:16: “we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.” The people began their journey by seeking to be forgiven of their sins by faith in Jesus Christ, then they went on by seeking to keep their righteousness by keeping the Law; this was dangerous and leading them away from the true faith. It caused Paul to say in Galatians 5:4, “You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.” And he encouraged them Galatians 2:21 by saying, “I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain."

Below is Dr. Michael Brown talking about how the Law (the Torah) corresponds to a believers life today. The first one (on left) is a clip and the second (on right) is the entire interview. The video is very informative!
