The letter to the Galations reveals to us the kind of gospel Paul preached:<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is an exclusive gospel<\/strong> &#8220;But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed&#8221; (Gal. 1:8-9 &#8211; NKJV).<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is a revealed gospel<\/strong> (Gal. 1:11-12)  The gospel Paul preached was not a social gospel, nor the product of man&#8217;s wisdom (1 Corinthians 2:4; 2 Peter 1:16). Its essence had been sent from heaven, by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 3:1-5)<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is an uncompromising gospel<\/strong> When its principle (one truth for all) was at stake, &#8220;we did not yield submission even for an hour&#8221; (Gal. 2:3-5). When the apostle Peter, through human weakness, &#8220;was not straightforward about the truth of the gospel,&#8221; Paul &#8220;withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed&#8221; (Gal. 2:11-14).<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is a gospel based on a system of faith<\/strong>  As opposed to justification by the law of Moses. In Gal. 3:10, Paul explains what is meant by &#8220;justification by law&#8221; by saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them<\/strong>&#8221; (cf. Deuteronomy 27:26).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The law could justify only when its demands were perfectly complied with, but no mortal man ever lived so perfectly, thus justification by the law placed man under a curse.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is a gospel of Spirit versus flesh<\/strong> It calls on us to put to death the fleshly desires that war against the Spirit (Gal. 5:16-17; cf. Colossians.3:1-10). It names specific works of the flesh, and says, &#8220;those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God&#8221; (Gal. 5:21).It encourages us to demonstrate the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-26).<\/p>\n<p>Dear reader, if we haven&#8217;t already, let us seriously consider obeying the kind of gospel that Paul preached.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Articles:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What Is The Gospel?<\/li>\n<li>The Gospel  Making Us Brand New<\/li>\n<li>Proclaiming The Undiluted Gospel Of Christ<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;The Foolishness Of The Message&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Eye Has Not Seen Nor Ear Heard&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Apostle Paul says God had chosen the Thessalonians (2 Thessalonians 2:13) and &#8220;called you by our gospel for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ&#8221; (2 Thessalonians 2:14).
