It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.
Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.
You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.
But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the righteousness for which we hope.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
You were running a good race. Who cut in on you and kept you from obeying the truth?
That kind of persuasion does not come from the one who calls you.
“A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.”
I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion will pay the penalty, whoever he may be.
Brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.
As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!
You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.
The entire law is summed up in a single command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
GNT … You are chosen to be free, don’t use your freedom as an excuse to do what you want, but serve others with love, remember to love others as much as you love yourself’
We are free to choose our own path and destiny, but don’t leave God out of your plans, whoever you are, whatever you do include Jesus in your plans; in Work, in Play and in your Family make Jesus the centre attraction.
This is one of Paul’s most important passages, especially in his early writings. But it is a shame and a sacrilege to post a meme with the American flag on it with these two verses. Christ is for all people regardless of nation. God has been blessing all peoples since the beginning (Gen. 12:3).
Amen I love you,my family members and Father up above.im just not gonna mind them.. God is my Boss, I don’t mind him at all times.. but I know him and what he can do!!!Tgbth
