Paul, continuing his letter to the churches in Galatia, now asks the believers "who hindered you from obeying the truth?"  Like the Galatians who were being deceived by false teaching bringing people under a religious legal system that was totally unnecessary, we too can fall victim to religious systems, traditions, dogmatic teachings and hinder our freedom in Jesus.  This brings us back into bondage of the world and the master of the world - Satan.  Paul clarifies certain behavior, like he did in his letter to the Ephesians and the first letter to the Corinthian believers, that is a disqualifier from the kingdom of God if we do not surrender that behavior to Jesus.  This is helpful in our lives to know what is expected of us but at the same time challenges our faith.  Do we really surrender all to Jesus?
