Galatians

About this book

An urgent letter to the early churches in Asia Minor, Galatians expresses Paul's concern for the spiritual welfare of the early believers. Pastor John MacArthur will take you through the book of Galatians, passage by passage, so that you can better understand Paul's presentation of the central doctrines of Christianity and how confusion was growing among his audience as false teachers began to teach that faith in Christ was not enough for salvation.In an earnest attempt to salvage the truth and integrity of the gospel, Paul penned Galatians--a book that would encourage hundreds of generations of Christians to remain steadfast in their faith. While contrasting grace and law, faith and works, Paul defends the theological and practical implications of Christianity and encourages believers--then and now--to live a holy life that bears much fruit.--ABOUT THE SERIES--The MacArthur Bible Study series is designed to help you study the Word of God with guidance from widely respected pastor and author John MacArthur.
