Ch2-5_We Are Justified Only by Pure Faith (Galatians 2:11-21)

Before I begin my sermon on this passage, let us together read Galatians 5:2-3: “Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing. And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.” I asked you here to read Galatians 5:2-3 so that we can first examine the background and the reason why the Apostle Paul wrote Galatians, and then I can proceed with my sermon on chapter 2.
What was the problem that the churches of Galatia faced? Unlike the Corinthian church, the problem for the churches of Galatia was over the issue of circumcision. In the Galatian churches, there were many who were circumcised, and many who also insisted on physical circumcision. In other words, in the churches of Galatia there were those who insisted on circumcision, arguing that anyone who comes into their churches must be circumcised. This obviously raised a great deal of the Apostle Paul’s concern.
