Question

Explanations for Galatians 2:18. In your own words.

Answer 1

In Galatians 2:18, Paul is addressing the idea that if you try to follow the law in order to be justified, rather than relying on faith in Jesus Christ, then you are essentially going against the purpose of Christ's sacrifice. By trying to be justified through the law, you are failing to live in accordance with the new life that Christ has given you through his death and resurrection. Paul is emphasizing the importance of faith in Jesus as the foundation for our justification, rather than relying on our own efforts to follow the law.
