We’re back in our journey through Galatians, as Paul reminds the confused Galatian church that we aren’t made right with God by hard work, following rules, or performing rituals, we’re made right through faith in Christ, because of His sacrifice on the cross. This good news isn’t just for a select few, but this good news is meant to be shared with people from every ethnicity. Like the Galatian church, we need to learn to live by this faith and share it freely with people of every background whom we encounter.
Scripture Reference
