Grace vs. Law: Lessons from Les Mis Galatians Pt. 13
In this fourth week of our Galatians devotional series, we explore the powerful contrast between grace and the law—both in Scripture and in Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables. Just as Jean Valjean encounters radical grace from the bishop and faces the unrelenting law through Javert, Paul confronts the Judaizers in Galatians 3, reminding us that salvation comes through faith alone, not works.
Join us as we unpack:
- How Les Mis illustrates the tension between grace and legalism
- Why Paul fiercely defends "faith plus nothing" in Galatians
- The purpose of the law in light of the gospel
- How good works flow from—rather than earn—our salvation
Whether you're familiar with Les Mis or new to Galatians, this study will challenge and encourage you to rest in the freedom of God’s grace. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more in this series!
