Context Readings

Live In Freedom And Love One Another

4 Those of you who seek to be right with God by observing the requirements of the law of Moses have severed yourselves from [your relationship with] Christ; you have fallen away from God's unearned favor. 5 For we are waiting for the hope [to be fulfilled] of being made right with God by [the power of] the Holy Spirit. 6 For in [our relationship with] Christ neither the practice of circumcision nor refraining from its practice matters in any way; but [all that really matters is having a genuine] faith [in Christ] that causes us to work [for Him] out of a genuine love [for Him and others].
