Galatians 5:2-12
2 Behold I, aPaul, say to you that if you receive bcircumcision, Christ will be of no benefit to you. 3 And I atestify again to every man who receives bcircumcision, that he is under obligation to ckeep the whole Law. 4 You have been severed from Christ, you who are being justified by law; you have afallen from grace! 5 For we through the Spirit, by faith, are aeagerly waiting for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in aChrist Jesus bneither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but cfaith working through love.
7 You were arunning well; who hindered you from obeying the truth? 8 This persuasion is not from aHim who calls you. 9 aA little leaven leavens the whole lump. 10 aI have confidence in you in the Lord that you bwill adopt no other view. But the one who is cdisturbing you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. 11 But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still apersecuted? Then bthe stumbling block of the cross would have been abolished. 12 I wish that athose who are upsetting you would even bmutilate themselves.
