“I am the Lord, and there is no other” - This truth is repeated several times over in this part of Israel (Isaiah 48:5-6,14,18,21-22; Isaiah 46:9).
The contrast, in Isaiah, is between God and the gods. The contrast, in
Galatians, is between Christ’s salvation and other ways of salvation (Galatians 4:25-26; Galatians 5:1).
There are always contrasts between what is godly and what is ungodly,
what is Christ-centred and what denies Christ. In the face of such
conflict, we have God’s own promise: “With God we shall gain the
victory, and He will trample down our enemies” (Psalm 108:13).
