It's an era which dates back to the first century, to one of the earliest churches, and it reminds us of our own tendency to add works to the gospel.

This is the Saturday edition of Renewing Your Mind, and we're starting a series on the gospel as our featured teacher, Derek Thomas, turns our attention to the book of Galatians.

And until midnight tonight, you can request this series.

It's titled, No Other Gospel, along with a copy of R.C.

Sproul's commentary on Galatians when you give a donation at renewingyourmind.org.

Well, here's Ligonier Teaching Fellow, Derek Thomas, to begin our study.

What a wonderful reminder.

That was Ligonier Teaching Fellow Derek Thomas on this Saturday edition of Renewing Your Mind, and I'm glad you're joining us today.

Paul wrote to these churches to counter a group of people known as the Judaizers.

He wanted to defend the truth.

This church was facing a grave error, and the church in the 21st century is in just as much danger.

The gospel is being distorted in our day, and we need to be equipped to defend it.

Dr. Thomas' series covers Paul's defense of the gospel throughout Galatians.

And we'll send you this 14-message series, No Other Gospel, on DVD, along with a hardcover copy of R.C.

Sproul's line-by-line commentary on Galatians, when you give a donation before midnight tonight at renewingyourmind.org, or by using the link in the podcast show notes.

Additionally, all of the messages and the study guide will be unlocked for you in the free Ligonier app.

So that's a video teaching series, a study guide, and a commentary, all on Galatians, when you give a year-end gift in support of renewing your mind and the global outreach of Ligonier Ministries.

This offer does end in a few hours, so respond now while there's still time.

Thank you.

To understand why Paul was so passionate about defending the gospel, we need to understand his murderous past.
