Galatians: It's All About Grace

Franklin Vineyard Church Podcasts

Galatians 3:1 You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
Somebody get Paul a Snickers bar! In chapter three of Galatians, Paul does not hold back because he is upset that the Judaizers within the Galatian church are trying to get new converts to put on something that's not theirs to put on. These rites and rituals are completely fine except when people think that they determine our standing with God, which is why Paul is so upset.
Paul urges the Galatians to remember the cross of Christ, the focus and center of the Christian faith. It is what God has done on our behalf rather than what we do that determines our righteousness.
