Galatians 5:11

Live In Freedom And Love One Another

¹⁰ I have confidence toward you in the Lord, that ye will regard nothing else; but he who is troubling you shall bear his sentence, whosoever he may be. ¹¹ But I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? then the stumbling-block of the cross has been done away! ¹² O that those who are unsettling you would even cut themselves off!
