Galatians 3:1-4
Justification by Law or by Faith?
3:1 You foolish Galatians! Who has cast a spell on you? Before your eyes Jesus Christ was vividly portrayed as crucified!
3:2 The only thing I want to learn from you is this: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the law or by believing what you heard?
3:3 Are you so foolish? Although you began with the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by human effort?
3:4 Have you suffered so many things for nothing? – if indeed it was for nothing.
