Paul preached that we are brought into possession of everything that God has for us, not by strenuous moral effort, good works, or self-sacrifice, but by simple faith in Christ alone. Furthermore, he taught that we cannot improve upon the finished work of Christ in our lives by ascetic activities such as fasting or other forms of self-denial. As Christians, we are "complete in him," and there is no room for improvement. This book presents a detailed analysis of Colossians 2 and Galatians 3, two important chapters dealing with Christian liberty and grace.
