As we said before, and now I say again, If anyone preaches a gospel to you beside what you have received, let him be accursed.

For now do I persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the Lord's brother.

But only they were hearing that he who then persecuted us, now preaches the faith which he once ravaged.

I have been crucified with Christ, and I live; yet no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And that life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith toward the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself on my behalf.

Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, do you now perfect yourself in the flesh?

Therefore know that those of faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

But that no one is justified by the Law in the sight of God is clear, for, "The just shall live by faith."

Brothers, I speak according to man, a covenant having been ratified, even among mankind, no one sets aside or adds to it.

For if the inheritance is of Law, it is no more of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by way of promise.

But faith coming, we are no longer under a trainer.

There cannot be Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is no male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

So that you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.

But now, knowing God, but rather are known by God, how do you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements to which you again desire to slave anew?

But you know that through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel to you before,

even now I desired to be present with you, and to change my voice; for I am in doubt as to you.

For Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to Jerusalem which now is, and is in slavery with her children.

But then even as he born according to flesh persecuted him born according to the Spirit, so it is also now.

But what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the slave-woman and her son; for in no way shall the son of the slave-woman inherit with the son of the free woman."

Now the works of the flesh are clearly revealed, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lustfulness,

meekness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any strength, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

For the rest, let no one give troubles to me, for I bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.
