A word list at the end explains words with a *star by them.
This is a letter that Paul sent to Galatia. He wrote it to help the Christians there. Some teachers there were teaching wrong ideas to the Christians. So Paul explained carefully why those ideas were wrong.
Paul’s letter has helped many people since then. This letter is one of the most important books that Christians have. It teaches that people cannot save themselves by their own work. Only God can save people. And he does it as a free gift. He does it by Christ’s death. We must ask Christ to come into our lives. And then God gives us his *Holy Spirit. By the *Holy Spirit, we can do the things that God wants us to do.
