Grace In Galatians

DAY 3 OF 5

Day Three - The Gospel of Grace Explained 

Read Galatians 3:1- 4:31

In this section Paul uses eight lines of reasoning to develop his theological defense of justification by faith:
(1) The Galatians began by faith, and their growth in Christ must continue to be by faith (3:1-5). 

(2) Abraham was justified by faith, and the same principle applies today (Gal. 3:6-9). 

(3) Christ has redeemed all who trust in Him from the curse of the law (Gal. 3:10-14). 

(4) The promise made to Abraham was not nullified by the law (Gal. 3:15-18). 

(5) The law was given to drive men to faith, not to save them (Gal. 3:19-22). 

(6) Believers in Christ are adopted sons of God and are no longer bound by the law (Gal. 3:23-4:7). 

(7) The Galatians must recognize their inconsistency and regain their original freedom in Christ (Gal. 4:8-20). 

(8) Abraham’s two sons use figurative language to reveal the superiority of the Abrahamic promise to the Mosaic Law (Gal. 4:21-31).

About this Plan

Grace In Galatians

Are you caught up in doing good deeds, but missing the gospel of faith? Are you feeling discouraged by faith based in works? Paul addresses this exact issue in Galatians and explores the foundational truth of the freedom of faith in Jesus Christ. Galatians offers a celebration of the freedom of grace and re-centers your focus on the law of love in God in three parts: the gospel of grace defined, the gospel of grace examined and the gospel of grace applied.
