At the conclusion of the apostle Paul’s letter to the Galatians, a number of Christian essentials are affirmed. Alistair Begg calls attention to the authority of Scriptures and the centrality of the cross as nonnegotiable realities in the life of every believer. God’s way of salvation is offered through grace, by faith, and cannot be supplanted by human effort. New Testament Christianity stands on this foundation.
11See with what large letters I am writing to you jwith my own hand. 12kIt is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh lwho would force you to be circumcised, and only min order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. 14But far be it from me to boast nexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which2 the world ohas been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15For pneither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but qa new creation. 16And as for all who walk by this rule, rpeace and mercy be upon them, and upon sthe Israel of God.
