A Matter of Life and Death
Paul concludes Galatians 2 by showing that the gospel of grace doesn’t lead to lawlessness but produces real transformation. Justification by faith unites believers to Christ so deeply that our old selves die with him, releasing us from the law’s curse, our failures, and the futility of self-righteousness. That death leads to new life: Christ now lives in us, creating what our efforts never could. The Christian life is not trying to live for God by our own strength, but living to God because Christ himself indwells, empowers, and defines us. Grace doesn’t nullify holiness—it generates it.
Topics: Grace, Self-righteousness, Salvation
