Galatians: God's Jealousy for the Purity of the Truth - Paperback

by Charles L. Parker (Author)

This exposition of Galatians is clear, and easy to understand. The final two chapters on the application of this biblical truth to churches and the atmosphere created in churches that embrace Galatianism could hardly be more cogent. The error confronted in this biblical epistle is very much in evidence in churches all across America today. Christians experience the Christian life as a kind of ongoing bondage, with little joy or peace. Congregations splinter into unbiblical divisions between those who align with accepted patterns of religious behavior, and those who do not. The fruit of the Spirit is neglected in favor of 'markers of spirituality' often delineated by leaders who do not see the bondage they are themselves promoting. Pride replaces humility. Man-centeredness replaces God-centeredness, and the worship of God gets lost in the shuffle. If any of this sounds all too familiar to you, then you will be encouraged by this simple exposition of the precious truths of Galatians.
