God Honours Gauls: The Law of Christ (Galatians 6:1-10)
Version Française The following ten verses address the dynamics of life together within the Christian community. In moments of theological conflict, believers can quickly become embittered—even toward those who share their faith. Paul continues the line of thought from verses 25–26, where he warned them not to be puffed up, not to provoke one another,…

God Honours Gauls: A Defining Moment in Flesh & Spirit (Galatians 5:16-26)
Version Française One of the most common objections raised against the doctrine of justification by faith alone is the claim that it encourages moral laxity. The argument insists that if salvation is received by grace through faith alone—and if a person can know they possess eternal life simply by trusting in the death, burial, and…

God Honours Gauls: Apostolic Red Flags (Galatians 5:7-15)
Version Française The Christian growth process is a long journey, one that demands a steady life of prayer, honest self‑examination, sustained and careful study of Scripture, and faithful discipleship in which sound theology is passed from one believer to another. Growth does not happen by accident; it is cultivated as we learn the truth, embrace…

God Honours Gauls: Freedom Marches Onward (Galatians 5:1-6)
Version Française The Christian life often feels like a kind of heavenly balancing act, especially when we consider how we are to live in light of God’s standards. We know what God has done for us—He has saved us by His grace, forgiven our sins through Jesus Christ, and set us free from the condemnation…

Version Française We now arrive in our series at one of the most intricate yet deeply enriching sections of the epistle. Here Paul paints a vivid and dramatic contrast between the law and the gospel, setting before us a theological picture that is both complex and profoundly illuminating. In this passage, we are given a…

God Honours Gauls: Self-Idolized Convert Hunters (Galatians 4:11-20)
Version Française Over the past twenty‑five years as a Christian, I’ve visited many churches, and one thing has stood out in many of them is that, in nearly every congregation, they offer a wide range of ministries designed to draw people in or keep their members busy. Some of the larger, more progressive churches offer…

God Honours Gauls: The Unshackled Adoptive Heir (Galatians 4:1-10)
Version Française The opening of this chapter continues the line of thought from 3:23–29, where Paul contrasts who they were before the arrival of the new age with what became true once it dawned. He retains the image of a child not yet mature—one who lived under the authority of a strict guardian (3:24–26). But…

God Honours Gauls: The Brigand Pedagogue (Galatians 3:23-39)
Version Française Many students dread their high‑school algebra class. Some struggle with the abstract equations; others simply can’t see how any of it will matter in real life and I can relate, because I was one of them. Still, the class had to be passed, and countless students turned to tutors for help. A tutor…

God Honours Gauls: Shining a High Beam Light on Shenanigans (Galatians 3:19-22)
Version Française While many may not know the Latin phrase ignorantia juris non excusat, they will be introduced to it instantly if they are caught speeding at 100 km/h in a 50 km/z zone if they try to argue that no sign warned them of the drop in speed. This Latin phrase simply means Ignorance…
