Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Spiritual Renewal预览
June 2
Introduction
Today we begin reading the apostle Paul’s letter to the churches of Galatia, a Roman province in Asia Minor. The letter was written in response to a surmounting crisis brought about by other missionaries who were misleading the Galatian Gentiles with false teachings and proclaiming a message that was contrary to what Paul had taught. In today’s reading, Paul expresses his shock that the Galatians have accepted “another gospel,” and he defends his call to be an apostle of Jesus Christ.
Today’s Scripture: Galatians 1:4 (GNT)
In order to set us free from this present evil age, Christ gave himself for our sins, in obedience to the will of our God and Father.
Today’s Reading
Galatians 1:1-24
Reflect
What has caused Paul to be surprised (verse 6)? By what authority does Paul claim to be an apostle? What biographical information does Paul provide about himself? What is the mission to which he has been called (verses 15, 16)? Has anyone ever challenged your beliefs and tried to mislead you? If so, how did you respond?
Pray
Lord Jesus, you sacrificed yourself for my sake and released me from the power of sin and the sting of death. Through you I have been given the gift of eternal life. To you be glory forever and ever! Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who have been misled by false teachings
Tomorrow’s Reading
Galatians 2:1-21: Paul describes his meeting with the other apostles.
