The Only Gospel

There is only one gospel: the message of God’s free grace in Jesus Christ. All other “gospels” are distortions leading to hopelessness and condemnation. What can these detrimental misrepresentations of truth look like, and how can we guard against them in our lives? In this message, Derek Thomas explains how the book of Galatians helps us combat the temptation to think we can contribute to our salvation.

The grace of God in the gospel is central to the Christian faith. No sooner had the message of the gospel taken root in the churches of Galatia than false teachers began to disseminate a false gospel among new believers. In response, the Apostle Paul zealously defended the truth of the gospel for the preservation of Christianity. In this lesson, Dr. Thomas introduces us to the background and key factors involved in the Galatian controversy, along with the Apostle Paul’s zeal to defend the gospel.
