To those free from the law I became like one free from the law (though I am not free from God’s law but under the law of Christ) to gain those free from the law.

And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is futile and your faith is empty.

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is useless; you are still in your sins.

For if only in this life we have hope in Christ, we should be pitied more than anyone.

Every day I am in danger of death! This is as sure as my boasting in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!

Now when I arrived in Troas to proclaim the gospel of Christ, even though the Lord had opened a door of opportunity for me,

For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your slaves for Jesus’ sake.

So then, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; what is old has passed away – look, what is new has come!

If there is any question about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you; if there is any question about our brothers, they are messengers of the churches, a glory to Christ.

For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy, because I promised you in marriage to one husband, to present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are following a different gospel –

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

You foolish Galatians! Who has cast a spell on you? Before your eyes Jesus Christ was vividly portrayed as crucified!

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be subject again to the yoke of slavery.

Listen! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you at all!

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

Now those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

He did this by predestining us to adoption as his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the pleasure of his will –

This power he exercised in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms
