'Circumcision' in the Bible

For until certain persons came from James he had been accustomed to eat with Gentiles; but as soon as these persons came, he withdrew and separated himself for fear of the Circumcision party.

Remember that it is I Paul who tell you that if you receive circumcision Christ will avail you nothing.

I once more protest to every man who receives circumcision that he is under obligation to obey the whole Law of Moses.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only faith working through love.

As for me, brethren, if I am still a preacher of circumcision, how is it that I am still suffering persecution? In that case the Cross has ceased to be a stumbling-block!

All who desire to display their zeal for external observances try to compel you to receive circumcision, but their real object is simply to escape being persecuted for the Cross of Christ.

For these very men do not really keep the Law of Moses, but they would have you receive circumcision in order that they may glory in *your* bodies.

For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only a renewed nature.
