Why did Paul hurriedly write the letter to the Galatians?
Paul wrote the letter to the Galatians hurriedly because he learned they were turning back to legalism. Among his daily burdens and the care of all the churches, this report demanded an immediate response, so he sat down and wrote its six chapters to correct their drift.
Les explains that Paul was human and constantly under pressure, not a superstar. Besides physical suffering, he faced mental and spiritual pressures and the care of all the churches, the believers. When he found out the Galatians were going back into legalism, he had to hurriedly sit down and write the six chapters of the little letter to the Galatians, because he was constantly besieged with the care of Christianity.
