Teachings on Galatians

“How to Handle People Who Failed You” – Galatians 6 (Tuesday 2/16/21)

The religious rule keepers putting heavy burdens on the Gentile Christians and making them feel that they don’t measure up to the seniority of the Jews, therefore, making them feel like a lesser Christian than the legal Christians.
