Galatians 2

In the first chapter of Galatians, Paul began defending his apostleship from rumors that he was not a true apostle and that gospel he preached was not the true gospel. Writing largely to Jews who felt that they must continue to abide by the Levitical law while following Jesus, Paul began by giving his testimony, moving from a former zealot in Judaism who persecuted the church to one who had a miraculous encounter with Christ. He continues that testimony today, including a brief history of his ministry to the Gentiles. The rubber meets the road when Paul brings up the “circumcision party,” a group who wants Gentile believers to be circumcised. Paul argues that if righteousness comes through obeying the Law, then Christ died for nothing.
