Galatians 5 : 2 - 10
Chapter 5
2 | Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
|
3 | And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.
|
4 | You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
|
5 | For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
|
6 | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.
|
7 | You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?
|
8 | This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.
|
9 | A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
|
10 | I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.
|
The grace of God the Father be with you all.
Amen.
