287 - Paul's Use of the Law in Galatians (with Dr. Patrick Schreiner)
In this episode, we invite Dr. Patrick Schreiner to discuss how to understand Paul’s use of the law in Galatians.
How should Christians today think about the law? In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Patrick Schreiner to explore Paul’s often misunderstood view of the law in his letter to the Galatians.
In the Old Testament, the law is described as a gift, delighting the soul (Psalm 1), sweeter than honey (Psalm 119:103), and guiding God’s covenant people (Exodus 20–24). But in Galatians, Paul seems to take a sharp turn, calling the law a temporary guardian that reveals our sin and cannot make us right with God.
So how do we reconcile these views? Is the law something to love, reject, or simply use? Dr. Schreiner helps us navigate this theological question.
