In this opening message from our series on Galatians, we see that Paul’s greeting is much more than a formality—it is a preview of the gospel itself. Paul emphasizes that his apostleship comes not from man, but from Jesus Christ who rose from the dead. And the heart of his message is this: “Christ gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of God our Father, to whom be glory forever and ever.”
The letter to the Galatians is one of the clearest, strongest defenses of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Here Paul proclaims the doctrine of justification by faith alone and insists that there can be no compromise. To lose this truth is to lose Christ himself.
