Galatians - Christ Hath Made Us Free (Week 17)
Blog post by Clear Gospel Truth • October 05, 2026We ought not to make the cross of Christ of none effect by adding the law to our Christian walk.
We ought not to make the cross of Christ of none effect by adding the law to our Christian walk.
Paul gives the allegory of Hagar and Sarah as a comparison of bondage vs promise and grace.
Understanding our position before God is the most important thing apart from our soul's salvation.
Paul continues to point to the cross in which the Galatians now take offense.
As a believer, to return to the law is to depart from your service to God.
God equips sons with the knowledge and wisdom God intends us to have through His completed Word via the revelation of the mystery of Christ.
The law was not given to provide life or righteousness, but to reveal sin and show mankind’s need for a Saviour.
Those who seek righteousness and justification through the works of the law place themselves under a curse.
By the pattern of Abraham in Gen 15:6 we are counted righteous when we trust exclusively in what Christ has done for our eternal soul's salvation. We are justified by faith.
A believer ought to answer this question daily, "Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law? Or by the hearing of faith?"
Why would a believer frustrate our complete position in Christ by adding the bondage of the law to our lives in Christ and grieve the Holy Spirit of God?
The leaders in Jerusalem recognized God's working through Paul and agreed to limit their ministry to the circumcision while Paul continued among the uncircumcision.
Those from Jerusalem who were putting members of the body of Christ under the law of Moses were wrong to do so as it is contrary to the truth of the gospel of grace.
Paul stands in defense of the gospel as false brethren sought to bring believers into bondage by the law of Moses.
The gospel of the grace of God originated with Christ Himself, and it was Paul's duty, as it is ours, to stand in defense of the gospel.
We must defend the truth of God's grace and reject teachings that place believers back under the law. It is only in liberty, set free from the law, that we can serve God.
God requires us to not only read, but to study His word. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God…” (2 Timothy 2:15). Take the opportunity to exercise your freedom to pursue God’s truth.
Enemies of the cross challenged both Paul's authority and his message. Paul reminds his audience that the gospel that they learned from Paul was given directly from the risen Lord Jesus Christ.
As we study Galatians, we are reminded to stand fast in the liberty Christ has provided. We are to walk by faith, serving God from a position only accessed by grace.
How is it that many testimonies fail to mention the cross at all?
Despite the law being holy, just, and good, it is a curse to those under it. Christ has redeemed believers from the curse of the law.
Recognizing the differences between the contents of prophecy and mystery is vital in understanding who we are so that we may serve the Lord worthily.
Many know of Jesus after the flesh (as He was in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) rather than according to the revelation of the mystery of Christ.
You cannot be saved unless you know what the gospel is. But did you know that you can actually know what the gospel is and not believe it?
The Corinthians request evidence of Christ in Paul. Paul's response is to have them examine themselves.
What fellowship does Christ's body have with darkness? With a harlot? There should be no fellowship with the wickedness of the world.
Paul can list the Corinthian's wicked behaviors and confidently declare, 'such were some of you'.
In Christ, we are seated in heavenly places. Our Savior and Head is above all principalities and powers.
Paul asks them again, 'Know ye not?' This time calling out despicable behaviour that even the world identifies as wrong.
Though seemingly contrary to their appearance on the outside, the Corinthians are exhorted to remember that their identity is in Christ.
We are dead to the law by the body of Christ.
God has made us free from sin, giving us glorious liberty to serve Him!
Paul asks, "Know ye not?" beginning with "That so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death?"
Christians should not be surprised when they look around and see a wicked fallen creation.
Being ignorant of God's will from the Bible rightly divided means that a believer is not able to do God's will.
Do you believe the words of the Bible in your hand are the pure words of the Lord?
As Christians, if we choose to be silent, we can live in this world comfortably. But that’s not what we’ve been called to do.
For quite some time Christians have had the idea that lifestyle preaches the gospel. It does not. Your lifestyle can't save a soul without the clear communication of the cross.
The law of Moses could never save a soul, but there is something it taught us.
God had kept a secret. At what seemed the darkest of times, Christ appeared to and raised up a man to tell this secret to. His name was Saul (later referred to as Paul). A religious man with blood on his hands
When the time came, Jesus was born of a virgin. A miraculous conception spoken of in prophecy, and his name was Emmanuel. The devil knew it was time; the Messiah had come
The devil, himself, had used his wiles to twist God’s words and cause humanity to separate from God. Yet, even as Satan celebrated what may have been his victory, that devil was made quite aware of his limited reign on the earth
In Romans Chapter 3, Paul finalizes his case against humanity. Humanity is lost, and helplessly stuck in sin. God had given
Revisiting how you were saved will produce the answer, which in case you are worried about it, is no.
The gospel is the most important information that anyone alive today can hear and learn. But what is it? The word "gospel" simply means "good news". When we're talking about the Bible
