Galatians 4:8-12 - Do Not Be Enslaved Again

8 However then, when ye did not know God, ye did service unto those who by nature are not gods. 9 But now, having known God, or rather being known of God, how do ye turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, in which ye desire again to be in slavery? 10 Ye observe days and months and times and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have bestowed labour upon you in vain.

12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are; ye have not injured me at all.
