Show Notes

False teachers have convinced the Galatians that they are required to be circumcised. The result is division within their church. In an epistle written to a church that he has founded, Paul gives numerous reasons why the people should return to the simple truth of the gospel. Christ’s death has ushered in the age of the new covenant. People do not have to become Jews or follow the outward ceremonies of the Mosaic law in order to be Christians. To require these things denies the heart of the gospel, which is justification by faith alone and not by keeping the “works of the law.” In this new age, Christians are to live in the guidance and power of the Spirit. Scriptures referenced include Romans 14:1; Galatians 1:6; Galatians 3:1-3; Galatians 2:21; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 2:16; Romans 6; Romans 8:1, 2; and 1 Corinthians 15:55.
