GALATIANS 1 | Verse by Verse | COMMENTARY

Paul was astonished that the Galatians were leaving grace for a different gospel. Could the same thing be happening today? In this verse-by-verse study of Galatians chapter 1, we walk through Paul's opening words: his apostleship, his greeting of grace and peace, his sharp warning about "another gospel", and why the pure gospel of grace can never be mixed with works. We also unpack James 2 ("faith without works is dead") and show how it fits with salvation by grace through faith alone. 📖 Chapters: 0:00 Galatians 1:1 – Paul, an Apostle Sent by Jesus, Not Men 4:14 Galatians 1:2 – Paul's Team and the Churches of Galatia 5:45 Galatians 1:3 – Grace and Peace to You 7:42 Galatians 1:4 – Jesus Gave Himself for Our Sins 8:49 Galatians 1:5 – All Glory to God Forever 11:05 Galatians 1:6 – Astonished: Deserting Grace for Another Gospel 12:53 Galatians 1:7 – Troublemakers Distorting the Gospel 15:40 Galatians 1:8 – Even an Angel: Let Him Be Accursed 17:23 Galatians 1:9 – The Warning Repeated 18:01 Galatians 1:10 – Pleasing God, Not People 21:40 Galatians 1:11 – The Gospel Is Not Man's Gospel 22:53 Galatians 1:12 – Received by Revelation of Jesus Christ 28:27 Galatians 1:13 – Paul's Former Life Persecuting the Church 30:03 Galatians 1:14 – Advancing in Judaism, Zealous for Tradition 31:19 Galatians 1:15-16 – Set Apart by Grace to Preach to the Gentiles 33:44 Galatians 1:17 – Arabia and Damascus: No Man Taught Paul 34:28 Galatians 1:18 – Three Years Later: Meeting Cephas (Peter) 34:39 Galatians 1:19 – Meeting James, the Lord's Brother 34:47 Galatians 1:20 – "I Do Not Lie" 37:18 Galatians 1:21 – Syria and Cilicia 39:02 Galatians 1:22 – Unknown to the Churches of Judea 39:11 Galatians 1:23 – The Persecutor Now Preaches the Faith 39:20 Galatians 1:24 – They Glorified God Because of Me 42:37 James 2 Explained: Faith Without Works Is Dead 49:41 Up Next: Galatians 2 and Paul Confronts Peter 🔑 You'll learn: - Why there is only one true gospel - How to test any teaching against the New Covenant - What it means to be a servant of Christ, not a people-pleaser - How Paul's own story shows the power of grace 💬 Have you ever been tempted to add works to grace?
