It is through Christ alone (Galatians 1&2)

 

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.

We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
But if, in our endeavour to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not! For if I rebuild what I tore down, I prove myself to be a transgressor. For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.

Christ alone Christ alone Christ alone.

Every generation will have those who will decided it could not be true that we are beneficiaries of such grace through Christ. Through faith in Him alone. We read yesterday of the Spiritual blessings that we have been bestowed with in Christ. Paul writes this letter to warm against false teachings. Our modern day prophets are more subtle as the lies are wrapped around a lot of truth but the core belief is not Christ even though it may sound biblical. Let us read the word that we may not be deceived. Let us endeavour with all we are to know God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ first hand in His Word.
