Galatians 5:13-6:18

A new creation

The Galatians hadn’t grasped the implications of Jesus having started his people’s rescue from this present evil age. All that now matters is being new creations through the cross and so living by his Spirit, not the Old Testament rules and regulations. But to understand what this really means and why it’s so important, we need to understand the Old Testament background that God revealed through the prophets.
