For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait expectantly for the hope of righteousness.

For each one will carry his own load.

For I did not receive it or learn it from any human source; instead I received it by a revelation of Jesus Christ.

But if I build up again those things I once destroyed, I demonstrate that I am one who breaks God’s law.

For through the law I died to the law so that I may live to God.

For in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God through faith.

For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything; the only thing that matters is a new creation!

For all who rely on doing the works of the law are under a curse, because it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not keep on doing everything written in the book of the law.”

For the flesh has desires that are opposed to the Spirit, and the Spirit has desires that are opposed to the flesh, for these are in opposition to each other, so that you cannot do what you want.

Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin.

(for he who empowered Peter for his apostleship to the circumcised also empowered me for my apostleship to the Gentiles)

I do not set aside God’s grace, because if righteousness could come through the law, then Christ died for nothing!

For if the inheritance is based on the law, it is no longer based on the promise, but God graciously gave it to Abraham through the promise.

For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision carries any weight – the only thing that matters is faith working through love.

For the whole law can be summed up in a single commandment, namely, “You must love your neighbor as yourself.”

Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows,

So we must not grow weary in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we do not give up.
