Interview 37: A New Perspective on Galatians (Jerry Wierwille)

Last time, Jerry Wierwille explained the concept of covenantal nomism–the idea that rather than seeking to earn their salvation through perfect obedience, Jews at the time of Christ looked at the Law as a covenant God graciously entered into with his people.  They enter that covenant by birth and then need to remain faithful to it through obedience to Torah.  This time he shows how this new perspective on Paul affects how we read his epistles.  Looking at the first few chapters of Galatians, Wierwille deciphers what Paul was saying about the Law for Christians both Jewish and Gentile. —— Links —— Listen to Wierwille’s previous interviews here Check out these sermons and articles on Wierwille’s website (JerryWierwille.com) Intro music: Jazzy Frenchy by bensound.com.
