Galatians for you - David Thiel 28/06/2020 Dianella Church of the Nazarene

Have you ever had to obey a rule and you wondered why the rule existed in the first place?

Some may ask themselves: "What's the story behind the rule? What's the point of the rule anyway?"

Paul is teaching the church in Galatia a very important lesson on what the Gospel is about. It's easy to lose track of the core message of the Good News when it's embedded in rules and regulations, even though the intentions may be good. Paul uses story-telling as a powerful tool to share the bottom-line of the Gospel to a community that was in danger of missing the point.
For today that is important as well. It's not about "anything goes" nor is is it just about rules alone.
