It is for FREEDOM that Christ has set us FREE

On the final morning of Cornerstone 2013, we drew the threads together with all ages present (literally 0-90), taking one of the most important verses of the letter as our theme. The opening few seconds were not recorded but the question was what makes a good use of time...

Having spent most of the letter debating with the dangers of legalism, Paul turns in the final chapters to the issue of licence: does it actually matter how we live? Well, it all depends on whether or not we are truly free...

The Galatians are in danger of losing everything that Christ has won for them - at the very least, they are living as if still blind people even after they have been given sight.

We now get to the heart of why a gospel of Faith is GOOD news and why a message about works of the law is such terrible news.

Having had his mission, message and gospel practice been fully endorsed and accepted by the Jerusalem apostles, Paul now finds himself having to confront the same people in order to protect the gospel of grace.
