Three Phases

Galatians 3: 1-5

Paul give focus to one of the key characteristics of the true gospel here in Galatians 3.  Salvation happens through the empowering of the Holy Spirit as well as continued growth happens in the same way.

In 1 and 2 Paul clarifies that we recieve the Spirit initially because of belief in the message of the gospel and then in 3 and 4 he reinforces that this is how we continue to operate and grow.  And in 5 he goes on to talk about the power of the Spirit in working miracles happens because of this same belief in the gospel of Christ.

Faith is never created from human works, but in belief in Christ.
