Episode Synopsis

How can we know we are really saved? Paul gives us THE TEST and he warns the Galatians if their salvation rests on performance they can be severed from Christ. You can't add anything to the work of Christ. How then does keeping the law matter once saved? Pauline theology shapes this view: The law is an expression of God's nature and keeping the law is a way to imitate him, but not to earn salvific favor. The gospel sets us free from the law for the law.
