Ch5-2_Sermon_Only Faith Working Through Love (Galatians 5:1-6)

Hello, everyone. The word we will look at together today is the word from Galatians chapter 5, verses 1 to 6. It is the word that the Apostle Paul cried out to the Galatian saints with a heart that felt like bursting.
The Apostle Paul went to the region of Galatia and preached the gospel of Jesus Christ, and the people living there heard that gospel and received the blotting out of sins. However, after the Apostle Paul left that place, certain people came in and began to shake the faith of the Galatian saints. Those people are exactly the Judaizers.
They spoke to the Galatian saints like this: “Believing in Jesus is good. But that alone is not enough. You must also keep the law of Moses, and you must also receive circumcision. Only then do you become true people of God.” When the Galatian saints heard these words, it seems it sounded plausible to them. “I did believe in Jesus, but somehow my heart is anxious. Am I really a true person of God? If so, it would be better to make it certain even by receiving circumcision.” Therefore, the Galatian saints began to receive circumcision one by one.
What kind of heart would the Apostle Paul have had upon hearing this news? His heart felt like it was being torn apart. “That is not the gospel I preached to you. You believed in Jesus and have already been forever released from sin, so why are you trying to go back to the law again?” Therefore, the Apostle Paul began to write a letter. That letter is exactly the Book of Galatians.
