Galatians (Epistle)

A chapter-by-chapter, verse-by-verse study of the Book of Galatians.

Galatians (Epistle) - Introduction

This introduction introduces us to the life of the Apostle Paul, known prior as Saul of Tarsus who became a Pharisee to the Sanhedrin Council of the Jews in Jerusalem. He had a visional encounter with Jesus, which dramically changed His life, of which he became the 1st apostle of Jesus who witnessed the Gospel to the Gentile population of the world. The Book of Galatians explains the trouble he had with the Judaizers in his ministry and the importance of keeping the Gospel pure. This Book also gives great detail to the importance of knowing the foundational difference between the Written and the Oral Law.

Galatians (Epistle) - Chapter 3

The Apostle Paul comes down on the Galatian believer in Christ for believing the lies of the Judaizer. He then gives examples of how Abraham lived by faith and not work, showing that salvation in Christ does not come because of the Law. The Law was fulfilled in Jesus. We live by faith and not the curse of the Law - the traditional Oral Law. The Law was our teacher to teach us right from wrong so that we can now, in Christ, live by the promies of God.
