This is part 1 of my sermon on Galatians. I was preaching through Acts in Fall of 2021 and in January of 2022 we were in Acts 14. The letter of Galatians was written somewhere around here, so it seemed appropriate to take a detour for a month or so into Galatians.

I talked with a guy yesterday morning for a while about Judas being hand-picked by Jesus. I am overwhelmed at the true meaning of sovereignty shown by Jesus. One of THE TWELVE is “a devil‚” and He doesn’t flee or try to take him out! He actually shows him a LOT of mercy. [quote]He called…
