<p class="bodytext">But you,<n id="1" /> brothers and sisters,<n id="2" /> are children of the promise like Isaac.

and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia.

Therefore, brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> we are not children of the slave woman but of the free woman.p>

<p class="bodytext">The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be<n id="1" /> with your spirit, brothers and sisters.<n id="2" /> Amen.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> I want you to know, brothers and sisters,<n id="2" /> that the gospel I preached is not of human origin.<n id="3" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> I offer an example from everyday life:<n id="2" /> When a covenant<n id="3" /> has been ratified,<n id="4" /> even though it is only a human contract, no one can set it aside or add anything to it.

I beg you, brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> become like me, because I have become like you. You have done me no wrong!p>

Now, brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted?<n id="2" /> In that case the offense of the cross<n id="3" /> has been removed.<n id="4" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters;<n id="1" /> only do not use your freedom as an opportunity to indulge your flesh,<n id="2" /> but through love serve one another.<n id="3" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> if a person<n id="2" /> is discovered in some sin,<n id="3" /> you who are spiritual<n id="4" /> restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness.<n id="5" /> Pay close attention<n id="6" /> to yourselves, so that you are not tempted too.
