Here in this passage, Paul continues to defend the fact that God called him to be an Apostle, chosen to represent Jesus Christ. The main theme of this passage is that God was being glorified through Paul's life. An exposition of Galatians 1:15-23.
Paul wrote this corrective letter to the church in Galatia because the believers were being fooled by legalistic Jews in their understanding of grace; they were thinking they could add to God's grace and gain His acceptance by keeping God’s ceremonial laws that He had given to Jews. Paul was teaching them and us as well that we are justified by faith alone and not by anything we can do.
