High School | Getting the Gospel Right (Galatians 2:1-10) | Collin Warner

Main message: Paul defends that there is one true gospel — salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone, the same for Jews and Gentiles — and Christians must hold fast to that truth and proclaim it.

Key points:

• Paul’s trip to Jerusalem with Titus (a Gentile believer) was to show that Gentiles are saved apart from obedience to the Jewish law (e.g., circumcision).
• The Judaizers were adding works to the gospel (Jesus + law/ritual); Paul insists the gospel is grace, not works.
• Paul met privately with the Jerusalem leaders (Peter, James, John) and they affirmed the same gospel and gave Paul and Barnabas the “right hand of fellowship.”
• Old Testament prophecy and Jesus’ teaching anticipate Gentile inclusion — salvation was always meant to reach the nations.
• Application: examine whether you truly trust Christ alone and be faithful to share the gospel with those around you.
