Messianic Apologetics editor John McKee discusses some of the complicated matters of Galatians 5:2-3. What would have been some of the negative consequences for the Galatians to go through with circumcision, actually returning to a yoke of slavery, and falling away from grace? These factors are often not considered in some contemporary Messianic discussions over Galatians 5:3, where one circumcised would become “a debtor to do the whole law.”
This is then followed by a review of important stories and issues from the past day or so, largely witnessed on social media.
