**Grace**
Grace (in salvation). [Galatians 1:6](../../../kjv/galatians/1/6); [Galatians 1:15](../../../kjv/galatians/1/15); [Galatians 2:21](../../../kjv/galatians/2/21); [Romans 3:24](../../../kjv/romans/3/24). *(See Scofield "*[Romans 3:24](../../../kjv/romans/3/24)*")* .

**sins**
Sin. *(See Scofield "**")* .

**grace**
The test of the Gospel is grace. If the message excludes grace, or mingles law with grace as the means of either of justification or sanctification [Galatians 2:21](../../../kjv/galatians/2/21); [Galatians 3:1-3](../../../kjv/galatians/3/1-3) or denies the fact or guilt of sin which alone gives grace its occasion and opportunity, it is "another" gospel, and the preacher of it is under the anathema of God [Galatians 1:8](../../../kjv/galatians/1/8); [Galatians 1:9](../../../kjv/galatians/1/9).

**For now do**
The demonstration is as follows:
(1) The Galatians know Paul, that he is no seeker after popularity [Galatians 1:10](../../../kjv/galatians/1/10).
(2) He puts his known character back of the assertion that his Gospel of grace was a revelation from God ([Galatians 1:11](../../../kjv/galatians/1/11); [Galatians 1:12](../../../kjv/galatians/1/12)).
(3) As for the Judaizers, Paul had been a foremost Jew, and had forsaken Judaism for something better ([Galatians 1:13](../../../kjv/galatians/1/13); [Galatians 1:14](../../../kjv/galatians/1/14)).
(4) He had preached grace years before he saw any of the other apostles ([Galatians 1:15-24](../../../kjv/galatians/1/15-24)).
(5) When he did meet the other apostles they had nothing to add to his revelations [Galatians 2:1-6](../../../kjv/galatians/2/1-6).
(6) The other apostles fully recognized Paul's apostleship. [Galatians 2:7-10](../../../kjv/galatians/2/7-10).
(7) If the legalizers pleaded Peter's authority, the answer was that he himself had claimed none when rebuked ([Galatians 2:11-14](../../../kjv/galatians/2/11-14)).

**Jews' religion**
The new dispensation of grace having come in, the Mosaic system, if still persisted in, becomes a mere "Jews' religion."

**religion**
In verses 13 and 14 the Greek word for "the Jews' religion" is Ioudaismos (Judaism). In [Acts 26:5](../../../kjv/acts/26/5); [James 1:26](../../../kjv/james/1/26); [James 1:27](../../../kjv/james/1/27) threskeia--religious service--is translated "religion," and in [Colossians 2:18](../../../kjv/colossians/2/18); [Colossians 2:18](../../../kjv/colossians/2/18) "worshipping." Excepting [James 1:27](../../../kjv/james/1/27); [James 1:27](../../../kjv/james/1/27) "religion" has always a bad sense, and nowhere is it synonymous with salvation or spirituality.
