The Real Gospel

Paul continues to reflect on his own story and how the unique revelation of the Gospel came to him and what it meant within the early church and his authority. This is a key historical piece that gives us understanding of the ministry of Paul and why we should take him seriously as the 'Apostle to the Gentiles.' He presents the basic issue at stake in Galatians: "I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!" (2:21).
