Spirituality is a hot topic in today's culture. Spirituality is essentially how one's beliefs and experiences influence the way one lives their life. Such influences for living are of critical importance to one's faith within the Christian community. What role does the Bible play in developing an expressed spirituality among the Christian community? How do one's religious traditions, cultural influences, and personal preferences influence the way Christian spirituality is perceived and expressed? All too often, and at times unintentionally, the foundational truths of the Bible are subordinated to tradition, culture, and personal preference. This book provides a context for understanding Paul's foundational components for Christian spirituality within the book of Galatians while showing how an accurate understanding of these components can and should serve as a corrective lens to various aspects of Christian spirituality as expressed and experienced today.

    Reasonable analysis of sanctification from Galatians 2:20, though an expensive work

    Within Christendom, there is caution, embrace and rejection towards """"spirituality"""". In McClendon's Paul's 'Spirituality in Galatians', the author seeks to reverse negative connotations with the concept and practice and seeks to reaffirm its value for contemporary Christians, in accordance with the works of the apostle Paul. In his introduction to Paul's Spirituality in Galatians, McClendon documents how the concept and practice of """"Christian"""" spirituality emerged, disappeared, and re-emerged with non-Christian beliefs. In chapter one, he defines Christian spirituality as """"the process of general spirituality brought under the direction of and in submission to the Holy Spirit. """" In chapter two, he starts with the premise that Christ is the total focus of a believer's walk and then proceeds to explain how the Holy Spirit affirms and fulfils this. In chapter three, he emphasises the ongoing tension in sanctification between being filled with the Holy Spirit and being conformed into the image of Christ, yet being in a sinful body. Finally, in chapter four, McClendon rightfully declares that """"that the exercise of saving faith is not just a single act at the beginning of one's spiritual life, but it is a continued element that undergirds one's spiritual life"""" and this needs to be evidenced. While his analysis of the Law being inoperative can be rebutted, it is a reasonable analysis of sanctification based on Galatians 2:20. It's cost is problematic, so buy…
