We continue our journey through Paul’s letter to the Galatians, as Paul gets to the heart of the issue at hand – that less than two years after planting these churches, they are deserting God by exchanging the true gospel of grace through faith in Jesus Christ for a false gospel built on works of the body and religious practices. Woe to those who preached that false gospel to the Galatian believers!
