A Pure and Powerful Gospel
The book of Galatians is a searing letter of correction from Paul to the people who lived in the region of Galatia. It’s interesting that when Paul wrote to the Corinthians (a city immersed in flagrant sins of the worst kind), he still found something nice to say about them.
Not so with the Galatians. The people in this region had fallen for something so severe that Paul used the most intense words possible to wake them up. What could possibly have been so serious?
The Galatians had started out dancing in grace, but then they started marching under a new form of legalism.
Theologians actually call this the “Galatian heresy.” Essentially, after Paul left the region, a group of devout Jewish believers moved in and said, “Yeah, everything Paul said is true, but we need the law, too.” They were trying to mix law and grace, marching and dancing.
So how does Paul start this critical letter to the faithful followers in Galatia? By bringing them back to the undiluted simplicity and power of the Gospel.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (Galatians 1:3-5)
The introduction to this critical letter is a potent reminder to us today to never, never mix the purity of the Gospel with anything else.
Jesus, my Lord and my Savior, Lord bring me back to the simplicity and purity of Your Gospel today. I praise You that You gave Yourself up for my sins and that You rescued me from the evil in this world, by grace. I rest in that now. Show me where I am trying to add anything to Your work by my own works. To You alone be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Believe it or not, the Christian life is a dance! You may have been raised to see it as a march of rigid rule keeping, but nothing could be further from the truth. In this 8-day reading plan, Pete Briscoe invites you to explore the difference between marching to earn God’s love and dancing in the grace He freely lavishes in Christ. Can you hear the music?
