The Book of Galatians
in Christianity
The main theme of the Galatians is the Defense of Justification by Faith and warnings of reverting to Judaism or returning to the Law. I believe that many Christians are not clear when it comes to the Law versus Grace. Too often many have tried to live the law and under Grace.The Law and grace are two exact opposites and to attempt to live by both dictates on creates confusion in the believers mind. It cretes instability in the mind and in the actions. What is Grace? Grace is God's unmerited favor towards us, not by anything we have done. It is unearned. It is not that the law was bad and Jesus was good; but rather both the giving of the law and the coming of Jesus Christ was God's stages in reaching out to humanity. Jesus Christ marks the final definitive revelation of God's grace and truth.Jesus is superior to Abraham, Jacob and Moses. The Law was fulfilled in Christ Jesus. Therefore we no longer must work for and sacrifice for His acceptnce but only have faith. Jesus Christ is the fulfilling of the law, a once and for all propitation for our sins. We are the righteous of God in Christ Jesus. The scripture says that without faith, it is impossible to please Him. For he that comes to God, must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those that seek him. To live by grace is to receive the promises of God by Faith To live under to law is to try and work to receives the promises of God. Remember that Jesus is the fulfilling of the Law. No more sacrifices.
I believe one of the hindrances of receiving by grace is due to the mindset established in us many years ago. We are accustomed to working for everything and feeling like if we haven't worked for it then we have not acquired it the right way. This natural mind of thinking is contrary to what God says. That is why it is so important that we are renewed in the spirit of our minds.

093 Book of Ascents Pt 14
in Christianity
Psalm 133
New King James Version
A Song of Ascents. Of David.
1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments. 3 It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing— Life forevermore.
