Galatians 6:11-18: What Counts Is The New Creation
Manage episode 402565850 series 2094168
Although most of the letter to the Galatians was physically written down by a scribe according to St. Paul’s dictation, the Apostle now picks up the pen himself to write the conclusion of the letter. His large letters authenticate the letter as coming from him, as he emphasizes once more to the Galatians the necessity of holding onto the true Gospel. Those who insist upon circumcision only want to boast in themselves; St. Paul would have the Galatians boast only in Christ crucified. In the final estimation, whether or not a person is circumcised is beside the point. Whether or not a person is a new creation in Christ crucified is what really matters.
Rev. Kyle Mietzner, battalion chaplain with the 10th Mountain Division of the United States Army at Fort Drum, NY, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Galatians 6:11-18.
“No Other Gospel” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the epistle of Galatians. St. Paul writes an urgent letter to the Galatians lest they forsake the one true Gospel. The apostle calls the Galatians away from the teaching of the Judaizers, because salvation does not come when we add any sort of works to what Jesus has done for us. We are only saved by God’s grace in Christ Jesus.
