DCF:

Paul accuses the Galatians of being removed from Christ,false teachings, bewitchment, losing gospel benefits, returning to being beggers of the world ,of him being an enemy,in need of rebirth, cannabilism of each other,and fleshly sin.

2:17 But if while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

To start off a relevant question. I thought . Wow ! Did Paul ever come down hard on these people. Calls them sinners and no doubt there was sin among them. But look at the long list of cutting comments that he also included and I didn't list half of what I found.

My questions are. Did Paul use all these cutting comments as a "shock" factor, to try to open the eyes of the Galatians; with the intent to the point of division of opening ears that will hear and eyes that will see. Did Paul show anger or intense passion ? Did he use the shotgun approach only to try to affect each and every one in some way ? Or was he sincere to the point of intending to explain each and every point he brought up.? Was he more interested in general principle or broader points ?

In Christ.gregor
