Grace From Galatians (12 Of 19)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 8, 2022

This is Paul’s fourth appeal to try to get them to come to their senses.

As we have seen, Paul does not understand why these backsliding Galatian Christians wanted to return to the bondage of the law.

Contributed by Paul Fritz on Oct 18, 2000

What is your response to the Potter today? Are you yielding all of your rights to Him so He can transform you according to His perfect plan, process and power?

When Withdrawal Is Wise Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Paul’s command is in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. There is no question as to the source of Paul’s authority. Paul commands them to withdraw from fellowship those believers who live disorderly, and not in harmony with the Christian values that he taught when he was with them.

Their basic problem was a lack of certain authority. They had been pagans all their lives, and they had ...read more
