Galatians
A sharp defence of freedom in Christ against adding law to grace.
About Galatians
Galatians is Paul’s most urgent letter, written to churches persuaded that Gentile believers must also keep the law. He opens without his usual thanksgiving and goes straight to the point, recounting his own history and his confrontation with Peter at Antioch. The argument is that righteousness comes through faith, and freedom is not a licence to indulge but the condition for serving one another in love.
- Freedom
- Faith not law
- The Spirit
