Download Lesson: 7.10.22 Class Notes – Gal 2

LOOK:

If a man could get right with God simply by observing the Jewish law, then Jesus died in vain. This is a pivotal statement in the letter. Life through faith in Jesus is liberation. The law stood for judgment and condemnation. Faith stands for forgiveness and freedom. The Galatian Christians, then, are free from the oppressiveness and irrelevance of Levitical law. Paul’s authority in declaring this freedom for Gentile believers has been authenticated.
