Description
Uncovering Scripture
Rediscover the Freedom of the Gospel
Galatians is Paul’s urgent defence of the truth that people are made right with God through faith in Jesus Christ. This complete study follows his argument from beginning to end and reveals why grace must never be replaced by religious performance.
Why Did Paul Write Galatians?
The churches of Galatia had received the gospel and begun their Christian lives through faith. New teachers then arrived and claimed that Gentile believers also needed to accept circumcision and submit to the law of Moses.
Paul recognised that this was not a minor disagreement. The very truth of the gospel was at stake.
In Galatians: Uncovering Scripture, Pastor Ellis Carrow guides you through Paul’s passionate response and explains why justification, Christian freedom and life in the Spirit remain central to the Christian faith.
The guide places famous verses back into their original context, follows the complete movement of the letter and makes Paul’s reasoning accessible to readers without formal theological training.
