How Are We Justified Before God? | A Study of Galatians 1:1-10

In Season 7 of the Uncultured Saints, Pastors Goodman and Lietzau are walking through the book of Galatians. In this episode, they take listeners through Galatians 1:1-10 and tackle several questions about the text, including the following: Why are Lutherans drawn to Galatians? What does it mean to be an apostle? What was Paul’s relationship with the Galatians? What’s the issue that Paul is addressing in his letter to the Galatians? What does he mean when he says they are no longer preaching Christ Crucified? What are they preaching? Does Paul have authority as an apostle and where does his authority come from? How do you know you can trust the authority of any pastor? What is the doctrine of justification? Why does Luther say it’s the doctrine on which the church stands or falls? What is the gospel and how does Paul define it in Galatians? What does it mean that Jesus is the source of peace? Can we find peace with God in anything other than Christ? What role do our own works play in finding peace with God? Can we add anything to our salvation? And more! Contributor Rev.
