Very true. If you read the book of Galatians, not just scripture by scripture, but read it as a letter as it was written, the entire letter is about them allowing themselves to be put back into the bondage of the law, and bringing back in the customs and "rules" of the past. Paul is setting them straight!
I think people "proof text" too much by taking a scripture here and a scripture there (out of context) to prove their points...but if you read the WHOLE letter, the whole story and look at the bigger picture....the image is much clearer....and very different.
