—Galatians 3:18-29
by: Lisa Moore.
After Paul started the Galatian church on the doctrine of salvation through faith, the Galatian brethren fell victim to persuasive Jewish men who taught that they had to keep the Mosaic Law in addition to belief in Christ in order to be saved. Paul’s letter reinforced that we are no longer subject to the Law. This does not mean we can do anything we want—kill steal, etc. It simply means that we cannot earn salvation by keeping the Law. The Law points out our wrongs but has no power to make us righteousness. Only faith in Christ can save us.
