Galatians 1

Yes, I am a little behind - however a house full of sick people, and then being sick myself, tends to do that!

A couple of thoughts on the first chapter of Galatians:

No matter what you have done in your life and how far apart from God you have lived, you can be redeemed and used to do God's will. Look at Paul - he persecuted the early Church. And yet he became a faithful missionary that spread the gospel throughout the Middle East and Mediterranean.

The other thought is to beware of false preaching! We have the Bible, translated into English in a variety of versions of which to better understand. In fact, we have the Bible on the internet - readily available free of charge! http://www.biblegateway.com/

These are our weapons against false preaching! When something sounds "hinky" - compare it to the words in the Bible. It will become obvious whether there is truth or deception.
