Overview

It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery (Gal 5:1 NASB). Early in Paul's ministry a controversy arose that rocked the very foundation of the church. The question: What is required for sinful humanity to be rightly related to holy God? Paul's adversaries from a Jewish background insisted that salvation required obedience to Mosaic laws, which included ceremonial regulations. Paul proclaimed that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone. The teaching of the Jewish legalists that works must be added to faith created confusion among the Galatian believers. Paul feared that some were in danger of being enslaved by legalism and robbed of their freedom in Christ. His letter to the Galatians has been referred to as the Magna Carta of religious freedom. In the twelve chapters of Free Indeed, readers will discover the profound simplicity of the gospel; be challenged to stand on the truth that Christ has saved us by God's grace; be encouraged to enjoy true Christian freedom and declare it to others; enjoy the privilege of calling God Abba! Father!
