Galatians, Chapters 1&2
In chapter one, verses 6-9 Paul exposes a huge problen to the Galatian christians. He identifies the problem as a different gospel (NIV) which is no gospel at all. He then immediately establishes his authority to address the problem. He continues this in chapter 2, then gives an example of when he(Paul) rebuked Peter for being hypicritical when he compromised over the same problem. Now some questions to consider as we read chapter 3 tomorrow. Why do we, the church, tend to put more importance on the Mosaic covenant (law) than we do on the Abrahamic covenant (promise) ? Also, how can a spirit filled believer become bewitched? More questions tomorrow.

Maybe it's our nature to doubt those "free" gifts that come with no strings attached. Especially in today's world where there seems to be an expectation of I've done this for you and now you owe me this.
