The Doctrine on Which Our Church Stands or Falls

Morning Service
Sep 7, 2025

Paul’s letter to the churches in Galatia emphasized a primary doctrine of the Christian faith—justification by faith alone. By adding to the gospel—whether through circumcision or the law—Galatian Christians were disregarding the sufficiency of Christ’s work on the cross. With regard to our salvation, nothing remains for believers to do—Christ’s work on the cross is complete, and God’s wrath is fully satisfied, poured out completely on Jesus as he suffered in our place. Because of the cross, all who put their trust in Christ can stand before a Holy God, having received by faith the imputed righteousness of Christ, with freedom to live lives filled with joy and gratitude.

Topics: Imputed Righteousness, Sacrificial Atonement, Justification

Galatians 2:15-21
