12 Galatians 6:11-18 Paul’s Final Comments
Paul writes his final comments with his own hand to emphasize his message.
11 Galatians 6:1-10 Loving our neighbors
It’s easy to discuss “loving our neighbor” in the abstract. It is more difficult to figure out how to apply that to concrete, practical everyday situations.
10 Galatians 5:13-26 Spirit vs. Flesh
What sort of freedom is Christian freedom? What does it mean to “walk by the Spirit” or “crucify the flesh”?
09 Galatians 5:1-12 For freedom Christ set us free
No compromise is possible. You either seek salvation by keeping the whole law or by grace through faith in Christ. You can’t mix and match law and grace.
08 Galatians 4:21-31 Who is your mother?
Two sons. Same father, different mothers. Only one inherited the promise.
07 Galatians 4:12-20 Leading through service
Paul’s relationship with the Galatians teaches us 5 principles of biblical leadership.
06 Galatians 3:23-4:11 The purpose of the Law
The law teaches us that we are sinful and we need a savior. But having learned that lesson, we should graduate from law-keeping to the maturity of faith.
05 Galatians 3:15-22 Deal vs. Promise
When you wake up each day do you see yourself as a child of promise or a slave to a deal?
04 Galatians 3:1-14 Two arguments for justification by faith
How does justification relate to atonement? What’s the difference between expiation and propitiation? Find out.
03 Galatians 2:11-21 Paul confronts Peter
Why does the Apostle Paul broadcast his conflict with the Apostle Peter in an open letter to multiple churches? What did he expect the Galatians to learn from it and what can we learn today?
02 Galatians 1:11-2:10 Paul’s defends his gospel
Paul claims you can have utter confidence in the gospel message he preaches because he received it by revelation from Jesus Christ, not human invention.
01 Galatians 1:1-10 Whose voice should you listen to?
Paul opens Galatians by claiming you can recognize the true gospel by its source (divine revelation), its substance (grace based on the cross) and its result (freedom).
