Galatians 6:12

A Final Warning

¹¹ You see with how long a letter I have written to you. ¹² Those who wish to make a fair appearance in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. ¹³ For the circumcised themselves do not keep the law, but they wish you to be circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.
