No Other Gospel, Galations 1:1-10

Featuring: Ian Bentley

Date: Sunday, 1 September, 2013

We live in a world where we are taught to be suspicious of people and of any authority they claim. I was listening to the radio in the week and hearing that there is now another scam whereby people are trying to get access to people’s bank accounts either by phone calls or even sending a messenger to ask for your bank card. We rightly ask by what authority?
So here is Paul who said to these Galatian Christians listen to me and we ask by what authority? Paul replies by God’s authority, who called me to be an apostle and gave me the message of salvation. Paul says I speak from God and for God. If that is so then we are not in a position to say as some do “I agree with Paul on this but I disagree with him on that”. No instead we say this is God’s word through Paul and we must listen, accept and obey his word.
What does God say through Paul for us to listen to, accept and obey? He says that there is only one gospel. It is the message from God that there is salvation only in Jesus Christ. We must trust that gospel for our own salvation and we must hold out that gospel unchanged to others that they too may be saved.
