Book: Galatians

What are the historical and theological reasons Jesus died on a cross?

What is the new perspective on Paul and how does it affect how we read Galatians? What is the relationship between grace, faith, and works?

Unity. It was the prayer of Jesus. It is the sign of our identity. It is the proof of our Savior’s presence. All will know we are Christ’s disciples by how we treat one another. For we are one in Christ Jesus.

In this final of three lessons, we consider the “Freedom fount” of the Restoration Movement, as expressed in Churches of Christ.

Join us as we search for the gospel in Galatians.

Think of all the things we give power to define us. Our last name. The accidents of our birth. The community to which we choose to belong. What we do for a living. The Christian story says that, in Christ, and through the gospel, God is calling you to a new identity. It comes with a new name. A new birth. A new community. And a new vocation. This is who you are called to be. This is who you really are.

Where does the gospel lead? What does the gospel create? What develops as a result of the gospel? Can you imagine an advertisement to be “free from weight loss” where the before and after picture looked the same? In the New Testament, the gospel that frees, the gospel that saves, the gospel that redeems leads to freed, saved, redeemed people living free, saved, redeemed lives. It means recognizing not just what we were saved from, but also what we were saved for.
