Paul, an apostle — not from men or by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised him from the dead —
I am amazed that you are so quickly turning away from him who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel —
not that there is another gospel, but there are some who are troubling you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.
For am I now trying to persuade people,[fn] or God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
For I did not receive it from a human source and I was not taught it, but it came by a revelation of Jesus Christ.
This matter arose because some false brothers had infiltrated our ranks to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus in order to enslave us.
and yet because we know that a person is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ,[fn] even we ourselves have believed in Christ Jesus. This was so that we might be justified by faith in Christ[fn] and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no human being will[fn] be justified.
But if we ourselves are also found to be “sinners” while seeking to be justified by Christ, is Christ then a promoter[fn] of sin? Absolutely not!
I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body,[fn] I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, because it is written, Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.
The purpose was that the blessing of Abraham would come to the Gentiles by Christ Jesus, so that we could receive the promised Spirit through faith.
Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say “and to seeds,” as though referring to many, but referring to one, and to your seed, who is Christ.
But the Scripture imprisoned everything under sin’s power,[fn] so that the promise might be given on the basis of faith in Jesus Christ to those who believe.
The law, then, was our guardian until Christ, so that we could be justified by faith.
There is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male and female; since you are all one in Christ Jesus.
And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, heirs according to the promise.
You did not despise or reject me though my physical condition was a trial for you.[fn] On the contrary, you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus himself.
For freedom, Christ set us free. Stand firm, then, and don’t submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Take note! I, Paul, am telling you that if you get yourselves circumcised, Christ will not benefit you at all.
You who are trying to be justified by the law are alienated from Christ; you have fallen from grace.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision accomplishes anything; what matters is faith working through love.
Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Those who want to make a good impression in the flesh are the ones who would compel you to be circumcised — but only to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ.
But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world.
