"Fighting for the Faith" Galatians 1:1-6

How do make myself right with God?  Do I need to attend the right church regularly, get baptized, take communion?  Do I need to follow all of the 10 commandments, and the strict calendar and dietary laws of the Old Testament? 

If you typed the question, "How do Christians believe you have to do to be saved from Hell,"  into your internet search engine, you would find all of those answers, and many more.

This is the question that divided the Protestants from the Catholics.  And today it divides many who call themselves "Christian."

But if we look at Scripture, the answer is very plain.  In fact, the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to a group of churches in Galatia, that answers that question emphatically.  His answer is that "by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast." Ephesians 2:8-9

We are saved entirely because of God's favor toward us.  We didn't and can't earn our salvation.  "Nothing to the cross I bring, only to the cross I cling."

Join us on this journey through Paul's fight for the gospel of grace.
