BACK STORY
Galatians
1 & 2
Greetings
Paul, an apostle—not from men nor through
man, but through Jesus Christ and God the
Father, who raised him from the dead— and all
the brothers who are with me,
Galatians 1:1–5 4
Greetings
To the churches of Galatia: Grace to you and
peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ, who gave himself for our sins to deliver
Galatians 1:1–5 5
Greetings
us from the present evil age, according to the

glory forever and ever. Amen.
Galatians 1:1–5 6

Agenda

Agenda on Steroids
I am astonished that you are so
quickly deserting him who called you
in the grace of Christ and are turning
to a different gospel—
Galatians 1:6–7 8
Agenda on Steroids
not that there is another one, but
there are some who trouble you and
want to distort the gospel of Christ.
Galatians 1:6–7 9
Problem
Christ plus the Law
10
2x the warning
But even if we or an angel from
heaven should preach to you a gospel
contrary to the one we preached to
you, let him be accursed.
Galatians 1:8 11
Another Gospel
Islam
Mormonism
Jehovah’s Witness
Prosperity Gospel
12
How?
Distort the
Gospel of Christ
13
Paul’s Gospel
For I would have you know, brothers, that
the gospel that was preached by me is not
man’s gospel. …but I received it through a
revelation of Jesus Christ.
Galatians 1:11–12 14
Back Story
God choose Israel
Circumcision
Keep the Law
15
Conversion
Baptism
Circumcision
Keep the Law
16
Jewish Christians
Accepted Jesus as Messiah
Salvation by faith
Still very Jewish
Counterculture
17
Romans 11:13a 18
Now I am speaking to you
Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am
an apostle to the Gentiles,
Paul
preaches
to
the
Gentiles
Judaizers
19
Christian Jews
 Circumcision
 Law
 Jesus
That was not the Gospel!
For I would have you know, brothers, that the
gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel.
For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I
taught it, but I received it through a revelation of
Jesus Christ.
Galatians 1:11–12 20
Paul’s Backstory
Galatians 1:13–14 For you have heard of my
former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the
church of God violently and tried to destroy it.
And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of
my own age among my people, so extremely
zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.
21
Road to Damascus
Galatians 1:15–16 But when he who had set me
apart before I was born, and who called me by his
grace, was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in
order that I might preach him among the
Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with
anyone;
22
God’s Theology School
He spend three years in Arabia receiving
revelation.
Went to see Cephas (Peter) Met the brother of
Jesus (James)
Preached the Word
14 years later he went to meet the church leaders
23
Why meet with Counsel?
I went up because of a revelation and set before them
(though privately before those who seemed influential)
the gospel that I proclaim among the Gentiles, in order to
make sure I was not running or had not run in vain.
Galatians 2:2 24
The
origin
on
the
Judizers
Yet because of false brothers
secretly brought in—who slipped
in to spy out our freedom that we
have in Christ Jesus, so that they
might bring us into slavery—
Galatians 2:4 25
Galatians 2:7–8 On the contrary, when they
saw that I had been entrusted with the
gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter
had been entrusted with the gospel to the
circumcised (for he who worked through
Peter for his apostolic ministry to the
circumcised worked also through me for
mine to the Gentiles),
Counsel
Accepted
26
Peter goes to Antioch with Paul
Gentiles are great!
Let’s do church. Worship, fellowship, Potlucks
Jew from Jerusalem show up
Galatians 2:13 And the rest of the Jews acted
hypocritically along with him, so that even
Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy.
27
Paul calls him out!
If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile
and not like a Jew, how can you force
the Gentiles to live like Jews?
Galatians 2:14 28
Paul to Peter
We ourselves are Jews by birth and not
Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person
is not justified by works of the law but
through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also
Galatians 2:15–16 29
Paul to Peter
have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to
be justified by faith in Christ and not by
works of the law, because by works of the
law no one will be justified.
Galatians 2:15–16 30
Justification
Belief in Jesus as Christ
Justified by that faith
The Law doesn’t justify
31
Our Take-Away
1.Jesus plus nothing!
2.The true Gospel is simple.
3.Be warry of additions.

  19. A Judaizer taught that, in order for a Christian to truly be right with God, he must conform to the Mosaic Law. Circumcision, especially, was promoted as necessary for salvation. Gentiles had to become Jewish proselytes first, and then they could come to Christ. The doctrine of the Judaizers was a mixture of grace (through Christ) and works (through the keeping of the Law).
