Galatians Verse by Verse - eBook

In Paul’s Letter to the Galatians, the gospel itself is at stake. Paul writes to churches that he founded on his first missionary journey, telling them to resist a group of Jewish Christians who were telling the Galatians that they had to be circumcised and follow the Old Testament law in order to be saved.

In Galatians Verse by Verse, Grant R. Osborne offers a clear exposition that gets at the heart of this powerful book. In lucid and careful prose, he walks readers through what the book of Galatians meant to its original audience and what it means today. The cross may not be replaced with works righteousness. Justification is by faith alone, and living the Christian life is not about trying to earn salvation but about keeping in step with the Spirit. Pastors, Bible study leaders, and invested laypeople will all benefit from this series and its commitment to making sense of the New Testament without scholarly jargon.
