Grow In Faith

Faith vs. Works Galatians Pt. 15

Christ Church IL Season 12 Episode 15

In this powerful section of our Galatians devotional series, Paul confronts the churches in Galatia with startling directness—even calling them "foolish" and "bewitched" for abandoning the gospel of grace. As we study Galatians 3:1-14, we see Paul's urgent defense of salvation by faith alone, rooted in God's promise to Abraham and fulfilled in Christ.

Key Themes Explored:

  • Why Paul uses such strong language toward the Galatians
  • How Abraham's faith—not works—made him righteous
  • The impossibility of earning salvation through the law
  • Christ becoming a "curse" to redeem us from the law's demands

This passage reminds us that our standing before God depends entirely on Christ's perfect obedience, not our efforts. Like the Galatians, we too must guard against drifting back into legalism or self-reliance.

Join us as we continue unpacking Paul's letter—a timeless message of grace that sets us free. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and turn on notifications for more in this series!
