In this episode, we lay the foundation of our examination of Paul's words in Romans 7 by doing a summary overview of chapters 1-6 of the book. In the course of our discussion, we will talk about the inability of the law to save, and the biblical reality of being released from slavery to sin since we have died to it.

In this episode we talk about the curse that Paul mentions regarding those who rely on works of the law for salvation. What are the demands of obedience to the law that makes works salvation an impossibility, and the curse a guarantee?

The Apostle Paul was not shy to confront Peter when he saw that he was living contrary to what the gospel was all about (Galatians 2). Now in Galatians 3, Paul is not shy to call the Galatian Christians foolish. In this episode we talk about why Paul was justified in doing so, and how he incorporates Abraham in his case for faith over works.

In the closing section of Galatians 2, we read of Paul's confrontation with Peter over his conduct toward the Gentiles in Antioch. What did Peter do, why was it wrong, and what sort of negative message does it send regarding the gospel? We answer these questions in this episode.

In this episode, we continue our look at Paul's defense of his apostleship as he describes his meeting with the leaders in the Jerusalem church. What was their reception of him and the message he preached to the Gentiles? And how does this demolish the Judaizer's false statements about Paul and the true gospel?

How does Paul defend and argue for his apostolic authority in relation to his encounter with the church leaders and apostles in Jerusalem? And how does that further his case for the gospel that is in Christ alone, by grace alone, through faith alone? We begin to explore these things as we begin Galatians 2.

In this episode, we continue our discussion of Paul's defense of his apostolic authority to the Galatian churches, this time focusing on the description of his post-conversion activities.

*Note: I read a very important verse on the Holy Spirit in connection to Luke 24:49, but failed to give the reference in the episode. That reference is John 14:26.

Paul, a preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ, begins to defend his apostolic authority to his Galatian audience. He does so by briefly and autobiographically laying out his way of living in both his pre-conversion and post-conversion days. But what does his story have to do with defending his apostleship and the truthfulness of the gospel that he preached? We begin to explore that in this episode by considering his pre-conversion life.

When Paul starts the book of Galatians, he skips the normal pleasantries we see in other epistles and gets straight to the point, because the issue at hand is such an important one. In tihs episode, we talk about why a false gospel is serious business and the consequences of promoting any message of "salvation" that is not the one true gospel.
