Welcome to the Daily Blade.

The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary spiritual weapon in the

Christian's armor against the forces of evil.

Your hosts are Joby Martin and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight.

Let's sharpen up.

Welcome back to the Daily Blade. As I said, last time I was on, I'm just

going to march through the book of Galatians. So we are on Galatians chapter two. We're going to do

verses 1 through 3. The Bible says then after 14 years, I in the eye there is Paul, went up again to

Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

I went up because of a revelation and set before them, though privately before those who seemed

influential, the gospel that I proclaimed among the Gentiles in order to make sure I was not

running or had not run in vain. But even Titus, who was with me, was not forced to be

circumcised, though he was a Greek. So just again, in case you missed two weeks ago, Paul planted

the church in Galatia, it was planted on the gospel. He raised up pastors and elders to run the church,

and then this group of evildoers that he calls, that are called the Judaizers come in, and they begin to preach a false gospel,

that you first had to be circumcised in order to be saved. This is what Paul is writing the letter

about. Now, the thing I want to point out here is the patience of Paul. So after 14 years of

ministry, Paul goes before, we're going to see.

It's like Peter, James, and John, and the guys that were running the show down in Jerusalem.

He goes and submits himself to their authority.

He lays before them this gospel that he preaches to make sure that he hasn't been running in vain.

I want you to see the patience of Paul.
