A Final Gospel Appeal, Part 2
In 6:11-18, Paul concludes with one final gospel appeal. In his appeal, he reiterates five main themes that he wishes to impress on the minds of the Galatians so that the gospel remains central and sufficient in their lives and churches. First, Paul reiterates his authority and authenticity as an apostle (6:11, 17). Second, Paul reiterates the sufficiency of the cross for salvation (6:12-14). In v. 14, Paul declares in the strongest possible terms that he will only boast in the cross of Christ. Such boasting in the cross would have been extraordinarily strange to both a Gentile and a Jew. Why then would Paul boast in such a repugnant, horror-filled, foolish symbol? In Galatians, we find at least eight reasons why Paul boasted only in the cross of Christ.
The God-Man and the Gospel
Why it was necessary for Christ to be both God and man in order to be our Savior and what Jesus accomplished for us in becoming the God-Man.
Stand Firm in Christian Freedom, Part 3
Christianity is freedom not bondage. In Galatians 5:1, Paul gives two key insights concerning Christian freedom. First, he states the fact of Christian freedom (v. 1a). The purpose of Christ’s redemption was to bring about the freedom of the believer. Second, he sets forth the response to this freedom (v. 1b). The response of the believer is to stand firm in this freedom. These two key insights embody the argument of the whole letter. Since the Galatians were not children of Hagar—the slave woman—but sons of Sarah—the free woman (v. 31) they are to stand firm in this freedom by the power of the Holy Spirit and not return to living under the slavery of law, whether it is the Mosaic Covenant or any kind of legal system.
