Galatians 3:

1-14
- you're saved by faith, not by law
- Paul made his case with Abraham as example. Abraham was called righteous because of his faith and was promised to be blessing to all nations. We are Abraham's children if we have faith, and as such we are also blessed along with Abraham


Salvation concept #1
- This book brings up topic on Abraham. Why it's significant for Paul to bring up this topic? This is significant because Abraham was counted as righteous, with no regards whether he's adhering the law, whether he's been circumsized. Abraham has faith on God and His promises (12:1-4), and we have faith on God and His promises. This will be counted to us as righteousness.


Salvation concept #2
- We will be saved according to "how far we know about salvation concept".


15-29
- The law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith
- The law was not in contradiction with the original promise, the world was overpowered by sin anyway... whether the law is there or not. The function of the law here was to magnify the fact that we need Christ for salvation.
- Now that faith (Jesus) has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law.

Galatians 2 - Paul accepted by Apostles, Paul Opposes Peter

- Continuation of previous chapter where Paul argues his authority to preach the gospel.

- Under pressure from the pro-circumcision (aka law) group, Peter changed his stand when it comes to proclaiming the gospel to the gentile. This causes many Jews also led astray to hypocrisy. Paul rebuked this

Verse to Remember: Galatians 2:20-21
20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!"
