Back to EpisodesGalatians 2:1–10 – The Gospel That Cannot Be Compromised
Description
Pastor Ian Thompson continues the Galatians series with a clear and pastoral exposition of Galatians 2:1–10. In this passage Paul travels to Jerusalem “by revelation,” bringing Barnabas and Titus with him, to ensure that the unity of the church is preserved and the gospel remains undefiled.
Titus stands as a living testimony that salvation is in Christ alone, by faith alone, without the works of the law. Paul exposes the danger of false brethren who seek to add human requirements to the gospel and shows why he refused to yield even for an hour. The apostles recognise Paul’s ministry, extend the right hand of fellowship, and remind him to remember the poor — the natural fruit of true gospel faith.
This teaching highlights three essential truths:
• The gospel must never be compromised.
• The unity of the church must be guarded.
• The fruit of the gospel is compassion.
A steady, Scripture‑centred message for believers seeking clarity, assurance, and confidence in the finished work of Christ.
