Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion
- Read Galatians 2:15-21. Verse 17 seems to be a response from Paul’s critics. What is their critique with justification by faith alone as presented in verse 16?
- Verse 18 is Paul’s response to the critique in verse 17. How does depending on the law for righteousness (rebuilding what has been torn down) promote sin?
- What does Paul mean in verse 19 by saying he has died to the law through the law? How does verse 20 help us understand what Paul is explaining?
- How does Christ’s death become everything to a Christian? What difference does his death make in your love for Him and your actions in life?
- What are some ways Christians end up nullifying the grace of God? What can we do to make much of the grace of God?
Memory Verse of the Week: Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (ESV)
