Freedom and The Bonds of Love

Series: Galatians - No Other Gospel

Freedom and The Bonds of Love

February 16, 2025 | Lynette Sanchez

"It is for freedom that Christ has set us free." This is the key statement of the letter to the Galatians. But Paul needs his readers to understand what they have been freed from and what they have been freed for. Their lives are not their own to be lived in full independence. Followers of Christ are now yoked together in an ethic of love that lives out the law of Christ. Only when we are free in Christ can we live lives of love for one another.

Series Information

The believers in Jesus in the region of Galatia (modern day central Turkey) received a stern lecture from their founding pastor in this book. Why? Within a short time they had started to add to the gospel ("good news") message on which they had been founded. How did this happen? How can we guard against this happening to us? What would it look like in our modern context? This letter from the Apostle Paul has profound lessons on faith and practice for both those that don't believe and for those that have already come to faith in Jesus.
