Introduction of Galatians
Paul’s letter to the Galatians, written around AD 48–55, is a passionate defense of the true gospel. Addressed to churches in the region of Galatia, it confronts teachers who insisted Gentile Christians must follow Jewish law. Paul powerfully argues for justification by faith alone and the freedom Christ brings. The letter’s fiery tone and theological precision reveal what was at stake. Its message of liberty in Christ continues to challenge every generation about what the gospel truly means.
