After assembling all the chief priests and experts in the law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born.

Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will mislead many.

Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe him.

One of the criminals who was hanging there railed at him, saying, “Aren’t you the Christ? Save yourself and us!”

He confessed – he did not deny but confessed – “I am not the Christ!”

But we know where this man comes from. Whenever the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”

But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is your life because of righteousness.

And in this way I desire to preach where Christ has not been named, so as not to build on another person’s foundation,

Is Christ divided? Paul wasn’t crucified for you, was he? Or were you in fact baptized in the name of Paul?

For no one can lay any foundation other than what is being laid, which is Jesus Christ.

So by your knowledge the weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed.

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.

But each in his own order: Christ, the firstfruits; then when Christ comes, those who belong to him.

But if while seeking to be justified in Christ we ourselves have also been found to be sinners, is Christ then one who encourages sin? Absolutely not!

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!
