Stand Firm in Freedom Excerpt If Galatians is the Magna Carta of Christian liberty, then  Gal 5:1  has reason  to be considered one of the key verses of the epistle . With the language of  freedom and slavery still ringing in their ears from the analogy of Hagar and  Sarah, the Galatians are now told by Paul: “Plant your feet firmly therefore  within the freedom that Christ has won for us, and do not let yourselves be  caught again in the shackles of slavery” (Phillips). 10  This verse contains both an  assertion, “For freedom … Christ has set us free,” and a command based upon it,  “Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of  slavery.”  More George, Timothy.  Galatians . Vol. 30. Nashville: Broadman & Holman Publishers, 1994. Print. The New American Commentary.
