Scripture Reading: Galatians 1:1-10

Devotional: Paul begins his letter to the Galatians with a stern tone, highlighting his divine appointment and addressing the issue of false gospels. His urgency stems from concern over the Galatians turning away from the true gospel.

Study Points:
  • Identify the key elements of Paul's introduction. What is his main concern?
  • Explore the role of an apostle and Paul's claim to apostolic authority (See Acts 9:1-19).

Application: Reflect on how often you seek approval from others rather than focusing on God’s calling in your life. How can you realign your priorities?

Reflection Questions:
  1. Why is Paul shocked by the Galatians' actions?
  2. How can we discern a distorted gospel today?
