Description

Focusing on Paul's own statement about the Galatian crisis, Yon Kwon demonstrates that the letter is Paul's pastoral engagement with the backsliding Galatians rather than his theological altercation with his opponents, Paul deals with the crisis in Galatia by reminding the Galatians of the implications of their present deviation for their future - the 'not yet'-, instead of affirming the blessings already realized in Christ - the 'already'.
