Galatians

The book of Galatians was written for recovering Pharisees. By trying to base their standing with God on their spiritual performance, the Galatians were in danger of denying the gospel. They needed to hear again the liberating message that we are justified not by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ.

Philip Graham Ryken (D.Phil., Oxford University) is senior minister of historic Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia
