But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which is preached by me, is not according to man:

For if I build again those things which I have destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

Are you so thoughtless? After having begun in Spirit, do you make an end in flesh?

And this I affirm, that the covenant which had been before confirmed by God with respect to Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, could not annul so as to make the promise of no effect.

As many as wish to make a fair show in the flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of the Christ.
