who to save us from the present wicked world gave himself for our sins at the will of our God and Father.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives in me. The life I am now living in the body I am living by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.

Christ ransomed us from the Law's curse by taking our curse upon himself (for the Scripture says, "Cursed be anyone who is hung on a tree")

and yet what must have tried you in my physical condition, you did not scorn and despise, but you welcomed me like an angel of God, like Christ Jesus himself.

I insist again to any man who lets himself be circumcised, that he is under obligation to obey the whole Law.

For if anyone thinks he is somebody when he is really nobody, he is deceiving himself.

Every man ought to test his own work, and then whatever satisfaction he has will be with reference to himself, and not in comparison with someone else.
