The Book of Galatians is in many ways a revolutionary document. So many of our recent theological battles have swirled around the words of Paul to the Galatian churches. He was in a fight for freedom. Judaizers challenged Paul's assertion that salvation is by God's grace alone. The gathering storm threatened to engulf the early church in a selfdestructive conflict. Paul's response cut through the cloud of misunderstanding. He gave a clear model for us to follow in dealing with controversy in the church. And he gave a refreshingly clear outline of the basis for our salvation—an outline that places justification and sanctification in their correct perspective.
