Most Christians are quite comfortable saying, “We’re not under the civic law, and we’re not under the ceremonial law.” But when it comes to the moral law, many hesitate. We instinctively want to hold on to the Ten Commandments.
 So, let me ask the question plainly: Are Christians under the Mosaic Law in any way?
 That question has created controversy for centuries. In fact, in the first century of Christianity, it caused such confusion that God gave us an entire book of the Bible to address it…... The book we today call Galatians….

If you read the book of Galatians, about the time you get to the middle of it, you may think, considering what Paul has just said, why did God give the law in the first place? Because when Paul talks about the law, he talks about it in such a way as to almost put it down.  
At times, it can almost seem like a tirade against the law. Not only can the law not save you if you're under the law, but you are also actually under a curse. And you can't read all this without asking, well, then why did God give the law in the first place? That is a very logical and natural question that arises out of all that he has had to say up until this point. 
 And Paul is aware of that, and so beginning in today’s passage, chapter 3, verse 19, he himself poses the question, and he asks, what purpose then does the law serve? And beginning at that verse and moving down through verse 26, Paul will answer that question.
Let's hear what he has to say…..

If you read the book of Galatians, about the time you get to the middle of it, you may think, considering what Paul has just said, that it is a very logical question. 
 Paul begins to talk about the law, but he does so in a way that almost puts it down. And after you hear that, you can't help but wonder, well, then why did God give the law? 
He continues his seeming tirade against the law. It cannot justify. You cannot receive the Holy Spirit by it, nor can you be matured in your faith by it. But it gets worse, remember yesterday in Chapter 3, verse 10. 
 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse of the law. For it is written, cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them”.
 Not only can the law not perform, if you're under the law system, but you are actually under a curse. And he goes on to say, in verse 13, that only Christ can redeem you from this curse of the law. 
 Now, you can't read this without asking, well, then why did God give the law? That is a very logical and natural question. proceeding out of all that he has had to say up until this point. 
Let's see what he has to say…..

There’s an old saying: “He who has an argument is always at the mercy of the one who has had an experience.” And that’s true. When Christ has changed your life, someone else’s argument doesn’t carry much weight. It’s perfectly valid to appeal to your experience—up to a point. But there’s also a weakness in relying on experience alone. 
 Experience can be misunderstood. It can be misinterpreted. And it can even be counterfeited. So, if we’re going to truly prove what we believe, we need something more solid than our own story.
 That’s exactly the situation Paul faced with the Galatians. False teachers had come along after he left and told these young believers that faith in Christ wasn’t enough—that they needed to keep the law to be saved. 
 So, Paul wrote the letter we call Galatians to set the record straight: salvation is by grace through faith, apart from the works of the law.  And that’s what we’re going to explore today: the objective proof of the gospel, the unchanging foundation that salvation is by grace through faith.

There are moments in the Christian life when we suddenly realise we’ve drifted—subtly, quietly—back into trying to earn what God has already given us. 
We may start well in the Spirit, but somewhere along the way, the old habits of self‑effort creep back in. And if that has happened to you, then Paul’s words in Galatians 3 should hit us like a wake‑up call:
In today’s episode, we’re stepping into one of the most personal, piercing, yet liberating passages in the whole letter. 
Paul isn’t giving a lecture—he’s asking us to look at our lives and inviting us to seek again at the proof of the gospel in our own lives: The work of the Spirit, the gift of grace, the miracle of our new birth, and the quiet evidence that God Himself has been at work in us from the very beginning.
So, as you listen, let the Word of God remind you of the freedom you already have. Because the gospel doesn’t just save us—it sustains us, shapes us, and empowers us every single day….
