Paul's epistle to the Galatians is not directed to a church specifically of Rome or Corinth as we have seen so far, but to Christians in a province, a region known as Galatia, and more specifically to South Galatia. Paul on his first journey founded several churches in this region. The region of Galatia today corresponds to present-day France, parts of Belgium, Germany and northern Italy. The only region where Paul visited in his first 3 journeys was the region of Gaul demonstrating how important this region was. What we saw in the last lesson is that the Letter to the Galatians is the magna charter of Christian freedom. What does freedom mean? Freedom means coming out of a judgment of oppression, out of prison captivity. And what was the judgment, what was the captivity at that moment? They were represented by the suffocation of the law, the Mosaic law. Judge was Jewish legalism. Even newly converted Jews to Christianity had not yet detoxified themselves, being freed from legalism. The content of Galatians is essentially the same content as Romans, justification by faith, the manifold grace of God, and above all about the saving sufficiency of Christ. Pleroma means 'fullness', signifies the totality of the divine powers, which are somatized in Christ. Pleroma is a Greek word that means 'he who fills', is his life empty? know that He is the pleroma, He fills his life, He is the meaning of life, He is the author of life, He is our firm foundation. The Galatians were originally part of the great Celtic migration that invaded Macedonia, These Celts were warriors, respected by Greeks and Romans. They were often hired as mercenaries, sometimes fighting on both sides in great battles of the time. With regard to salvation we have basically two doctrines: monergism and synergism. Basically the difference between these two currents is: who accomplishes my salvation? There is a fundamental difference between Reformed thought and Catholic thought, in this sense they are incompatible. In Reformed thought, we have monergism, the action of one, that is, it is God who gives faith, it is God who calls us, God who saves. In Catholic thought we have synergism, man collaborates with God in his salvation.
