Galatians Galatians one paul an apostle, not from men nor

through man, but through Jesus Christ and God, the Father

who raised him from the dead, and all the brothers

who are with me to the churches of Galatia. Grace

to you and peace from God, our Father and the

Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins, to

deliver us from the present evil age, according to the

will of our God and Father, to whom be the

glory forever and ever.

Amen.

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him

who called you in the grace of Christ, and are

turning to a different gospel.

Not that there is another one.

But there are some who trouble you and want to distort.

The Gospel of Christ.

But even if we or an angel from heaven should

preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we

preach to you, let him be accursed. As we have

said before, So now I say again, if anyone is

preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one.

You received, let him be a cursed.

For am I now seeking the approval of Man or

of God? Or am I trying to please Man? If

I were still trying to please Man, I would not

be a servant of Christ, for I would have you know, brothers,

that the gospel that was preached by me is not

man's gospel. For I did not receive it from any man,

nor was I taught it. But I received it through

a revelation of Jesus Christ. For you have heard of

my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the Church

of God violently and tried to destroy it. And I

was at advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own

age among my people. So extremely zealous was I for

the traditions of my fathers. But when he who had

set me apart before I was born, and who called

me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his son

to me in order that I might preach him among

the gentiles, I did not immediately consult with anyone, nor

did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were

apostles before me. But I went away into Arabia and

returned again to Damascus. Then, after three years, I went

up to Jerusalem to visit Cephis, and remained.

With him fifteen days.

But I saw none of the other apostles except James,

the Lord's brother. In what I am writing to you

before God, I do not lie.

Then I went into.

The regions of Syria and Cilicia, and I was still

unknown in person to the churches of Judea that are

in Christ. They only were hearing it said, he who

used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he

once tried to destroy. And they glorified God because of

me Galatians too. Then, after fourteen years, I went up

again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

I went up because of a revelation and set before them,

though privately, before those who seemed influential, the gospel that

I proclaim among the gentiles, in order to make sure

I was.

Not running or had not run in vain.

But even Titus, who was with me, was not forced

to be circumcised, though he was a Greek. Yet, because

of false brothers secretly brought in, who slipped in to

spy out our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus,

so that they might bring us into slavery to them.

We did not yield in submission even for a moment,

so that the truth of the Gospel might be preserved.

For you, and from those who seemed to be influential.

What they were makes no difference to me. God shows

no partiality. Those I say who seemed influential added nothing

to me. On the contrary, when they saw that I

had been entrusted with the Gospel to the uncircumcised, just

as Peter had been entrusted with the Gospel to the circumcised.

For he who worked through Peter for his apostolic ministry

to the circumcised, worked also through me from mine to

the gentiles. And when James and Cephus and John, who

seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given

to me, they gave the right hand of fellowship to

Barnabas and me, that we should go to the gentiles,

and they to the circumcised. Only they asked us to

remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do.

But when Cephus came to Antioch, I opposed him to

his face, because he stood condemned. For before certain men

came from James, he was eating with the gentiles.

But when they came, he.

Drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party. And

the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him,

so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy.

But when I saw that their conduct was not in

step with the truth of the Gospel, I said to

Sephis before them all, if you, though a Jew, live

like a gentile and not like a Jew, how can

you force the gentiles to live like Jews. We ourselves

are Jews by birth and not gentile sinners. Yet we

know that a person is not justified by works.

Of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ.

So we also have believed in Christ Jesus in order

to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by

works of the law. Because by works of the law

no one will be justified. But if in our endeavor

to be justified in Christ, we too were found to

be sinners. Is Christ then a servant of sin?

Certainly not. For if I.

Rebuild what I tore down, I proved myself to be

a transgressor. For through the law I died to the

law so that I might live to God. I have

been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live,

but Christ who lives in me, and the life I

now live in the flesh. I live by faith in

the son of God, who loved me and gave himself

for me. I do not nullify the grace of God.

For if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died

for no purpose. Galatians three, Oh, foolish Galatians.

Who has bewitched you?

It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly

portrayed as crucified. Let me ask you only this. Did

you receive the spirit by.

Works of the law or by hearing with faith? Are

you so foolish?

Having begun by the spirit? Are you now being perfected

by the flesh? Did you suffer so many things in vain?

If indeed it was in vain?

Does he who supplies the spirit to you and works

miracles among you do so by works of the law or.

By hearing with faith?

Just as Abraham believed God, and it was counted to

him as righteousness. Know then that it is those of

faith who are the sons of Abraham. And the Scripture

foreseeing that God would justify the gentiles by faith, preached

gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, in you shall all the

nations be blessed. So then those who are of faith

are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. For

all who rely on works of the Law are under

a curse. For it is written, cursed be everyone who

does not abide by all things written in the Book

of the Law and do them. Now it is evident

that no one is justified before God by the law,

or the righteous shall live by faith.

But the law is not of faith.

Rather, the one who does them shall live by them.

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by

becoming a curse for us. For it is written, cursed

is everyone who is hanged on a tree, so that

in Christ Jesus, the blessing of Abraham might come to

the gentiles, so that we might receive the promised spirit

through faith. To give a human example, brothers, even with

a man made covenant, no one annulls it or adds

to it once it has been ratified. Now the promises

were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does

not say and to offsprings, referring to many, but referring

to one and to your offspring, who is Christ. This

is what I mean. The law which came four hundred

and thirty years afterward, does not annull a covenant previously

ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.

For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no

longer comes by promise. But God gave it to Abraham

by a promise. Why then the law it was added

because of transgressions until the offspring should come to whom

the promise had been made, and it was put in

place through a by an intermediary. Now an intermediary implies

more than one. But God is one. Is the law then,

contrary to the promises of God?

Certainly not.

For if a law had been given that could give life,

then righteousness would indeed be by the law. But the

Scripture imprisoned everything under sin, so that the promise by

faith in Jesus Christ.

Might be given to those who believed.

Now, before faith came, we were held captive under the law,

imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed.

So then the law was.

Our guardian until Christ came in order that we might

be justified by faith. But now that Faith has come,

we are no longer under a guardian. For in Christ

Jesus you are all sons of God through faith. For

as many of you as were baptized in to Christ

have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek.

There is neither slave nor free. There is no male

and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring heirs.

According to promise Galatians four, I mean that the heir,

as long as he is a child, is no different

from a slave, though he is the owner of everything,

but he is under guardians and managers until the date

set by his father. In the same way, we also,

when we were children, were enslaved to the elementary principles

of the world. But when the fullness of time had come,

God sent forth his son, born of woman.

Born under the law, to redeem.

Those who were under the law, so that we might

receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God

has sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts,

crying Abbah, Father.

So you are no longer a slave, but a son,

and if a son, then an heir through God.

Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved

to those that by nature are not God's. But now

that you have come to know God, or rather to

be known by God, how can you turn back again

to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world.

Whose slaves you want to be. Once more.

You observed days and months, and seasons and years. I

am afraid I may have labored over you in vain. Brothers,

I entreat you become as I am, for I also.

Have become as you are. You did me no wrong.

You know. It was because of a bodily ailment that

I preached the Gospel to you at first. And though

my condition was a trial to you, you did not

scorn or despise me, but receive me as an Angel

of God, as Christ Jesus. What then has become of

the blessing you felt? For I testify to you that,

if possible, you would have gouged out your eyes and

given them to me. Have I then become your enemy

by telling you the truth? They make much of you,

but for no good purpose. They want to shut you

out that you may make much of them. It is

always good to be made much of for a good purpose,

and not only when I am present with you, my

little children, for whom I am again in the anguish

of childbirth, until Christ is formed in you. I wish

I could be present with you now and change my tone,

for I am perplexed about you. Tell me, you who

desire to be under the law, do you not listen

to the law. For it is written that Abraham had

two sons, one by a slave woman and one by

a free woman.

But the son of.

The slave was born according to the flesh, while the

son of the freewoman was born through promise.

Now this may.

Be interpreted allegorically. These women are two covenants. One is

from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery.

She is Hagar.

Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia. She corresponds to

the present Jerusalem, for she is in.

Slavery with her children. But the Jerusalem above is free,

and she is our mother.

For it is written, rejoice, o baron one who does

not bear, break forth and cry aloud, you who are

not in labor, for the children of the desolate one

will be more than those of the one who has

a husband. Now, you brothers, like Isaac.

Are children of promise. But just as at that time,

he who was.

Born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born

according to the spirit.

So also it is now. But what does the scripture.

Say, cast out the slave woman and her son. For

the son of the slave woman shall not inherit with

the son of the free woman. So, brothers, we are

not children of the slave, but of the free woman.

Galatians five.

For freedom Christ has set us free. Stand firm therefore,

and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. Look, I,

Paul say to you that if you accept circumcisions, Christ

will be of no advantage to you. I testify again

to every man who accepts circumcision, that he is obligated

to keep.

The whole law.

You are severed from Christ, You, who would be justified

by the law, you have fallen away from grace. For

through the Spirit by faith, we ourselves eagerly wait for

the hope of righteousness. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision

nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love.

You were running well who hindered you from obeying the truth.

This persuasion is not from him who calls you a

little leavin Leven's the whole lump. I have confidence in

the Lord that you will take no other view than mine,

and the one who is troubling you will bear the

penalty whoever he is. But if I, brothers, still preach circumcision,

why am I still being persecuted? In that case, the

offense of the cross has been removed. I wish those

who unsettle you will emasculate themselves, For you were called

to freedom, brothers, only, do not use your freedom as

an opportunity for the flesh. But through love, serve one another,

for the whole law is fulfilled in one word. You

shall love your neighbor as yourself. But if you bite

and devour one another, watch out that you are not

consumed by one another. But I say, walk by the spirit,

and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

For the desires of the flesh are against the spirit,

and the desires of the spirit are against the flesh.

For these are opposed to each other to keep you

from doing the things you want to do. But if

you are led by the spirit, you are not under

the law.

Now the works of the flesh are evident.

Sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits

of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things

like these. I warn you, as I warned you before,

that those who do such things will not inherit the

kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,

self control. Against such things there is no law, And

those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh

with its passions and desires. If we live by the spirit,

let us also walk by the spirit. Let us not

become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

Galatians six Brothers.

If anyone is caught in any transgression, you.

Who are spiritual, should restore.

Him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself

lest you too be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and

so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks

he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

But let each one test his own work, and then

his reason to boast will be in himself alone, and

not in his neighbor, For each will have to bear

his own load. One who is taught the word must

share all good things with the one who teaches. Do

not be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever one

sows that will he also reap. For the one who

sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption.

But the one who sows to the spirit will from

the spirit reap eternal life.

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in.

Due season we will reap if we do not give up. So,

then as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone,

especially to those who are of the household of faith.

See with what large letters I am writing to you

with my own hand. It is those who want to

make a good showing in the flesh who would force

you to be circumcised, and only in order that they

may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. For

even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law,

but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may

boast in your flesh. But far be it from me

to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,

by which the world has been crucified to me and

I to the world. For neither circumcision counts for anything,

nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. And as for all

who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon

them and upon the Israel of God. From now on,

let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on

my body the marks of Jesus, the grace of our Lord,

Jesus Christ be with your spirit brothers.

Amen.
