About this sermon

How are we made right with God? In this expository sermon on Galatians 3:6-9, Pastor Richard Caldwell explores the biblical truth of justification by faith alone. Looking back at Genesis 15:6, we see that Abraham was justified before God through faith, long before the law or the sign of circumcision was given. The Judaizers of Paul's day falsely taught that salvation required faith plus keeping the law. But the Old Testament Scriptures clearly testify to the gospel of grace: salvation has always been the result of God’s gracious choice, received by faith in Christ alone. In this sermon, you will learn: The Argument of the Legalizers: Why substituting physical rituals (like circumcision) for spiritual realities corrupts the gospel. The Uniqueness of the Church: How the New Covenant distinguishes the spiritual Church from the physical nation of Israel. The Answer of the Apostle Paul: How the imputation of righteousness is given only to those who place the entire weight of their trust in Christ. The True Sons of Abraham: Why spiritual identification, not physical lineage, makes you part of God's family. Has the Lord changed your heart? Examine the object, content, timing, and result of Abraham’s faith, and discover what it means to live a truly believing life. 📖 Scripture References: Galatians 3:6-9, Genesis 12:1-3, Genesis 15:6, Romans 4:1-12, Colossians 2:11-14. #Galatians3 #JustificationByFaith #PastorRichardCaldwell #FoundersBaptistChurch #ExpositoryPreaching #ReformedTheology #GospelOfGrace
