Your Place in His Plan

Paul gives yet another strong warning about the Judaizers because they are a major threat to the most important thing – knowing Christ. God’s spiritual protection is not automatic. It comes through the warnings. If we fail to heed the warnings, we forfeit the protection. Teachers who fail to warn bear the responsibility for those who fall to deception. God’s plan to fix what is broken in the world is to call a special people who would bring salvation to the whole world by producing the Messiah. After the Messiah came, inclusion in the people of God no longer involved Jewishness. If you know Christ, you are one of his people.
