The letter to the Galatians was written to guard the salvation that had come to the people of Galatia through the gospel. The message of Jesus was under attack by false teachers and many Christians in Galatia hadn’t even realised! Some of them were being fooled into following Old Testament laws that were only ever intended to prepare the people of Israel to receive their Messiah – laws which had no power to save them, only to frustrate them.
The same is true of every other ‘law’ that we are used to operating by. Most churches in our culture haven’t been fooled into operating by Old Testament laws, but we are operating under the rules of 21st century western capitalism! Our temptation is to become fixated with growing churches instead of making disciples, which means churches are competing for market share and Christians move from church to church based on the quality of experience being offered.
Galatians 6 brings us back to the reality that we reap what we sow. In our case, giving in to the law of the market economy means training Christians to be consumers instead of disciples, robbing them of the salvation that Jesus brings in our everyday experience of life and stealing the witness of the Church. God calls us to repent just as strongly as He called the Christians and the false teachers in Galatia to!
