Who's Right? Living by the Law or Living by Faith?
Galatians 1:1-6 · March 23, 2022
In “Who’s Right? Living by the Law or Living by Faith?” Robert Furrow explores Paul’s letter to the Galatians and its central message: righteousness comes through faith in Jesus Christ, not by keeping the law. The teaching addresses the false gospel troubling the early church and encourages believers to live by the Spirit and express their faith through love.
