  • Acts and Galatians: the Perfect Dovetail?1 Stephen Voorwinde
    Acts and Galatians: The Perfect Dovetail?1 Stephen Voorwinde Stephen Voorwinde is Adjunct Lecturer in New Testament at the Reformed Theological College Between its first account of Paul’s conversion (Acts 9:1-19a) and the first missionary journey (Acts 13:14), the book of Acts devotes no more than sixteen verses to the life of the apostle (Acts 9:19b-30; 11:25, 26, 30; 12:25). Compare this to the sixteen chapters (Acts 13-28) that follow his missionary career from this point on. Our knowledge of Paul’s early years as a Christian can be reconstructed from a careful comparison of Acts and his epistles, especially Galatians. According to David deSilva, “Galatians gives us more first-hand information about Paul’s early career as a Christian missionary than any other text.”2 On the basis of the following assumptions a clear picture begins to emerge: 1. Galatians 1:11-24 = Acts 9:1-30 1. Paul confesses to the Galatians how he “used to persecute the church of God beyond measure, and tried to destroy it,” adding “and I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries among my countrymen, being more extremely zealous for my ancestral traditions” (Gal 1:13). His religious zeal expressed itself in his murderous persecution of the infant church (Gal 1:23; Phil 3:6). This corresponds well with the Acts account which reports that “Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest, and asked for letters from him to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, both men and women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem” (Acts 9:1-2).

    GALATIANS 1:11-17 I. REJECT THOSE WHO TEACH YOU A DIFFEENT DOCTRINE A. Because My Doctrine Is Not From Men 1. For I did not receive it from a man nor was I taught [it] Introduction After beginning his letter with a passionate appeal to the Galatians not to turn away from the Gospel of Grace he had taught them, Paul proceeded to give them five reasons why they should respond positively to his appeal (Gal. 1:11-4:20). Then he gave them a Scriptural illustration to help them understand his appeal (Gal 4:21-31), and finally he repeated the appeal one more time (Gal. 5:1-12). The first reason he gave them for responding to his appeal was that he had received the doctrine he taught them from God and not from men. His explanation of how he received his doctrine from God is the longest single section of the book. It extends from Galatians 1:11 through Galatians 2:21. He told of five events in his life that confirmed that his doctrine came from God. The first was that he had learned that doctrine initially through an appearance to him of Jesus Christ Himself. He reminded them that formerly he had opposed Jesus and His teachings fiercely and had persecuted those who accepted it. He had changed his mind, not because of the witness or work of any man, but because Jesus came to him while he was on the road to Damascus to persecute Christians there. Jesus’ appearance had been too dramatic and His commands too specific for him ever to doubt or forget them.

This is the only letter which St. Paul addressed to a group of churches. St. Paul wrote this letter with his own hand, in large letters although he had an eye problem, to show them how much he care about them as some Judaizers told them that he preaches to the Jews differently. Aim of the Epistle To teach that salvation is only through the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ opposing the “Judaizers” (Christian teachers from Jewish background who were teaching people that without keeping the words of the Law, you cannot be saved).

  • Galatians 1:13-2:10 Notes the Chronology of Paul's Apostleship
    Galatians 1:13-2:10 Notes The Chronology of Paul's Apostleship Paul's former way of life in Judaism (1:13-14) · For Paul's persecution of the church, see Acts 6:7-15 Acts 7:54-60 Acts 8:1-4 · For Paul's advancement in Judaism, see Acts 22:3-4 with Acts 5:34 Acts 26:4-5 Philippians 3:4-6 Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus (1:15-16a) · For Paul's conversion experience, see Acts 9:1-21 Acts 22:4-16 Acts 26:9-20 Paul's ministry in Arabia and Damascus (1:16b-17) · Paul recognizes that "the Twelve" were apostles before he was. · Arabia was a desert region to the east of Damascus · Paul may have gone there for a time of quiet reflection and study, but his primary purpose was probably to begin carrying out his commission to preach to the Gentiles. · He must have aroused the hostility of officials in Arabia by his preaching (see 2 Corinthians 11:32). Paul's first visit to Jerusalem (1:18-20) · Paul had been preaching and teaching in the area around Damascus before he made his first visit to Jerusalem since his conversion. · The Jerusalem disciples would probably have a difficult time believing that Paul had been converted to Christ, so Barnabas provided Paul's introduction to visit privately with Peter and James (see Acts 9:26-27). · Why Peter and James? In 1 Corinthians 15:5-8 there are only two people who are mentioned by name as having Christ appear to them personally after His resurrection: Peter and James.

  • Missions Begin
    MISSIONS BEGIN Week 41: Paul’s Travels: 1st Missionary Journey (Acts 10 – 15; Galatians) Antioch was the 3rd largest Week Forty-One Reading Plan city in the Roman Empire with about half a million Acts 11:1-30 Gospel in Antioch people. It is where believers Acts 12:25-13:52 Missionaries Barnabas & Saul (Paul) Sent from Antioch were first called Christians. Acts 14:1-28 Mission Tour through Asia Minor Paul’s three missionary Acts 15:1-35 Jerusalem Council and the Place of the Law for Non-Jews journeys began in Antioch. Galatians 1:1-2:21 Law is not Part of the Gospel The church there continued to grow faith which impacted Galatians 3:1-4:7 Life of Faith the world for Christ for Galatians 5:1-6:10 Christian Liberty Led by the Spirit centuries. Fourteen years after Saul’s conversion, the Antioch church commissioned him and Barnabas as missionaries. Thus began the first of what is called the 3 missionary journeys of Paul. The first journey lasted about 2 years (47-48AD), and was the shortest—distance and time wise. Saul and Barnabas, accompanied by John Mark, set out from Antioch for Cyprus. They then went to Turkey, landing at Attalia. They proceeded inland along the military road in Asia Minor. At Perga, John Mark left them. Saul and Barnabas then stopped at Pisidian Antioch, Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe, all in the province of Galatia, before retracing their steps to revisit the congregations they had founded earlier. This first mission trip confirmed Paul as a leader in spreading the gospel of sins forgiven through Jesus Christ to the non-Jews.

  • Social and Cultural Textures in Galatians 1
    SOCIAL AND CULTURAL TEXTURES IN GALATIANS 1 Keith Maynor One of Paul’s early epistles, the book of Galatians captures a profound identity struggle in the early church. Would the young Galatian church continue in the gospel they first learned from Paul, or would they veer to a new course of faith? To keep the Galatian churches in line with the true gospel, Paul writes an autobiographical statement to bolster his credentials and demonstrate his apostolic authority. Typical interpretations of Paul’s narratio focus on the polemical elements. This paper will explore the social and cultural textures to find alternative elements. At the heart of Paul’s story, there is a testimony of transformation. Paul’s transformation story has profound consequences for biblical interpreters and ministry leaders today. This paper will conclude with a practical discussion for how Galatians 1 can enhance transformational leadership theory. I. INTRODUCTION Identity is crucially important to human beings. It is a cherished possession of the individual and is a unifying force that connects people into shared experiences. Even though identity is a fundamental necessity for the human condition, it can also complicate group relationships. Individuals, factions, and coalitions can have vast disagreements over identity. Whether it is Shakespeare’s dramas, or the political battles unfolding on Twitter, the question of identity can create enemies. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra strike in 1996 illustrates a deep disharmony. When Mary Ann Glenn (2000) worked out of Emory University in Atlanta, she thoroughly detailed the chain of events that led a highly organized and collaborative musical group to delve into a disruptive strike.

  • Paul's Epistle to the Galatians 1. Historically, the Galatians As A
    Paul's Epistle to the Galatians 1. Historically, the Galatians as a people had come into the central highlands of what is now Turkey around the Third Century B.C. as part of an ongoing great Celtic migration out of central Europe. This migration extended also across western Europe and into what is now known as the British Isles and their language is still spoken in portions thereof. Historical records show an overlap of the terms Celtic and Gallic. Their region was once called Gallo Graecia and was made a Roman province (Galatia) around 25 B.C. John Gill notes that some affirm that the Grecians called them Galatians from gala, which signifies milk, because of their milky color. 2. Little is said in scripture about the forming of the churches of Galatia. ACT 16:6; 18:23. A. They had been idolaters in spiritual bondage to fleshly works and ceremony. GAL 4:8-10. B. Paul certainly takes credit for founding them. GAL 4:13-15, 19. C. Paul gave them orders. 1CO 16:1. 3. Their churches were in considerable doctrinal and practical disorder, yet Paul affirms them as churches (GAL 1:2). Their candlesticks were still in place. A. Paul called them brethren and children of promise like himself. GAL 4:28. B. He called them, “My little children...” (GAL 4:19), not disowning them. C. That they were in considerable disorder and still churches is not an excuse for disorder but it does show that true churches may have serious flaws. (1) Five of the seven churches of Asia (REV 2-3) had disorder.

  • Galatians 2. Showdown in Antioch
    Galatians: The Letter that Saved the Church The Showdown in Antioch Galatians 1:11-2:14 Blackhawk Church 2021 The Context of Galatians • Author: Paul • Recipient: The churches in Galatia are composed of mostly Gentiles. Paul founded these churches likely as part of his second missionary journey (49-52 AD). • Date: Some time after the founding of these churches (52-55 AD). 2/4/21 (3) Galatians: The Letter that Saved the Church The Context of Galatians • Situation: After Paul left Galatia, Jewish Christians (likely from Jerusalem) came to these churches and taught the Galatians that to be truly part of the KOG and become children of Abraham, they needed to embrace Jewish ethnicity by following some key elements of the Torah, in particular, circumcision, Sabbath, and food laws. These Jewish Christians also attacked Paul’s authority as an apostle (not connected to Jerusalem), labeling him as a people-pleaser who avoided teaching the hard parts of the gospel (e.g., circumcision). • Content: The letter is Paul’s response to the situation 2/4/21 (4) Galatians: The Letter that Saved the Church My Gospel is Superior 11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. 2/4/21 (5) Galatians: The Letter that Saved the Church A Negative Travelogue 13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
