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 with my own hand. 12It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised, and only in 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 except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which2 the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. 16And as for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.
