- Welcome to The Rapid Bull, Daily Edition, where we provide a quick Biblical Interpretations and Applications.
- 00:12
- This is a ministry of striving for eternity. The book of Galatians, now this is often thought of as Paul's cliff notes version of the book of Romans.
- 00:24
- Paul wrote this book, it is shorter, it's six chapters, but it is packed with information that is doctrinal on the issue of salvation.
- 00:33
- Now the background to this book is that there were these Judaizers, the Judaizers were these Jewish people that were saying that as people became
- 00:41
- Christian, they had to come back under the Jewish law, they had to keep kosher, they had to be circumcised, things like this, and they had to go through this process of really going back under the law.
- 00:54
- Now that was getting questions about salvation, are we saved by grace or by the law, do we have to live a life of law abiding, and he is going to deal with these issues.
- 01:08
- So the first really half or four chapters is going to be very doctrinal in nature.
- 01:15
- He's going to give a strong defense of justification by faith. He's going to use different illustrations for that.
- 01:23
- Then the last two chapters is going to be very practical, it is going to be a strong defense now for Christian liberty.
- 01:31
- He's going to talk about how the law didn't get us saved, we were saved by grace through faith, now that we are, he's going to talk about what role does the law have, and that we're free.
- 01:42
- He's going to talk about the freedom that we have because the law didn't save us, it was Christ who saved us, but there still is a benefit or a purpose for the law.
