“The Gospel of Grace Explained”
(Galatians 3:1-29)
Paul’s explanation of the Gospel of Grace begins by remembering four things:
- Remember How You Received the Holy Spirit (3:1-5)
- Remember the Story of Abraham (3:6-18)
- Remember the Purpose of the Law (3:19-25)
- Remember Three Consequences of Your Baptism (3:26-29)
Four Implications of This Text to Consider:
- Being “in Christ” is the essence of gospel proclamation and practice.
- Like Paul, our priorities must shift.
- Don’t trade God’s presence for rules.
- Galatians 3 emphasizes that Christianity is a religion built on relationships.
