Book of Galatians
Day 13
READ Galatians 2:17-18
“But if, in seeking to be justified in Christ, we Jews find ourselves also among the sinners, doesn’t that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not! If I rebuild what I destroyed, then I really would be a lawbreaker.”
COMMENTARY:
In these verses, Paul challenges the idea that justification by faith in Christ promotes sin. He emphasizes that by seeking to be justified in Christ, believers are acknowledging their own sinfulness and need for God’s grace. Paul’s teaching highlights the transformative power of the gospel to bring about true repentance and change in the lives of believers.
Questions to ponder:
- Consider the transformative power of the gospel to bring about true repentance and change in the lives of believers. How has the gospel impacted your own life?
- Reflect on any areas of sin or brokenness in your life where you need to experience God’s grace and forgiveness. How can you surrender these areas to Him and trust in His transforming power?
