Grace be with you and peace from God the father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

I marvel that ye are so soon turned from him that called you in the grace of Christ, unto another gospel:

But when it pleased God, which separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,

and therefore when James, Cephas, and John, which seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the righthands, and agreed with us that we should preach among the heathen, and they among the Jews:

I despise not the grace of God: For if righteousness come of the law, then is Christ died in vain.

Ye are gone quite from Christ as many as are justified by the law, and are fallen from grace.

Brethren, if I yet preach circumcision: why do I then yet suffer persecution? For then had the offense which the cross giveth, ceased.

As many as desire with outward appearance to please carnally, they constrain you to be circumcised, only because they would not suffer persecution with the cross of Christ.

God forbid that I should rejoice but in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, whereby the world is crucified as touching me, and I as concerning the world.

Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, Amen. {Unto the Galatians, Written from Rome}
