In Sermons upon the Epistle of Saint Paul to the Galatians, John Calvin—pastor, reformer, and master exegete—lays bare the soul of Paul’s Gospel, waging theological war against every vestige of legalism and self-righteousness that creeps into the Church – a thunderous trumpet blast against every attempt of man to climb to heaven by his own merit.
在《圣保罗加拉太书讲道集》中，约翰·加尔文——牧师、改教家和释经大师——揭露保罗福音的灵魂，对潜入教会的律法主义和自义的每一个痕迹发动神学战争——对人企图凭自己功德爬上天堂的每一个试图发出雷鸣般的号角声。
Here, the Genevan Reformer does not offer us cold doctrine or academic treatise—he gives us fire.
在这里，日内瓦改教家不是给我们冷漠的教义或学术论文——他给我们火焰。
Preached from the pulpit, these sermons pulse with pastoral urgency, holy zeal, and a deep, fatherly love for the flock of Christ.
从讲台上宣讲，这些讲道充满牧养的急迫性、圣洁的热忱，以及对基督羊群深厚的父爱。
Calvin’s expositions are not confined to theological precision; they aim at the heart, calling sinners to cling to Christ alone and urging saints to stand firm in gospel liberty.
加尔文的阐释不限于神学的精确性；它们瞄准内心，呼召罪人单单抓住基督，催促圣徒在福音自由中站立得稳。
This collection is especially vital in our age when grace is so often twisted into license, and legalism quietly seeps back into Christian living dressed in new clothes.
这个合集在我们这个时代特别重要，恩典如此经常被扭曲为放纵，而律法主义悄悄地穿着新衣渗透回基督徒生活中。
Calvin will have none of it.
加尔文绝不容忍这些。
With unwavering clarity, he brings the Apostle Paul’s message into full light: we are justified by faith, not by the works of the law.
以坚定不移的清晰性，他将使徒保罗的信息完全显明：我们因信称义，不是因律法的行为。
Every page drips with Scripture and is laced with pastoral exhortation, as Calvin lays bare the danger of adding anything to Christ’s finished work.
每一页都滴着圣经，充满牧养的劝勉，当加尔文揭露在基督完成的工作上添加任何东西的危险。
He pleads with the Galatians—and with us—not to trade the freedom of the gospel for the yoke of slavery.
他恳求加拉太人——也恳求我们——不要用福音的自由换取奴役的轭。
What makes this volume unique is not merely the doctrinal richness, but the soul-searching application.
使这卷书独特的不仅是教义的丰富性，而是省察灵魂的应用。
Calvin addresses the wavering, the weary, and the rebellious with the heart of a shepherd.
加尔文以牧人的心对待摇摆的、疲倦的和悖逆的人。
He rebukes false teachers with apostolic boldness and draws the broken-hearted back to the cross with gentleness and reverence (1 Peter 3:15).
他以使徒的勇敢斥责假教师，以温柔和敬畏将心碎的人拉回十字架（彼前3:15）。
These sermons are not for the casual reader—they are for those hungry for God, who tremble at His Word and long to be established in grace.
这些讲道不是为随意的读者——它们是为饥渴神的人，因祂的话语战兢并渴望在恩典中得坚立的人。
If you’re looking for devotional substance, theological clarity, and the Spirit’s conviction, you will find all three here.
如果你寻找灵修的实质、神学的清晰性和圣灵的感动，你会在这里找到这三样。
Read this book prayerfully.
带着祷告阅读这本书。
Read it slowly.
慢慢地阅读。
Let Calvin walk you through Paul’s letter as a guide who has stood at the foot of Sinai and then run to Calvary.
让加尔文带你走过保罗的书信，就像一个曾站在西奈山脚下然后跑向各各他的向导。
For pastors, it will sharpen your preaching.
对牧师而言，它会锐化你的讲道。
For laypeople, it will deepen your assurance.
对平信徒而言，它会加深你的确据。
For all who are in Christ, it will magnify the Savior.
对所有在基督里的人，它会尊崇救主。
And in an age of religious confusion, this work is a clarion call to return to the gospel once delivered to the saints.
在宗教混乱的时代，这部作品是回到一次交付圣徒的福音的嘹亮呼声。
