1 Christ has set us free! This means we are really free. Now hold on to your freedom and don't ever become slaves of the Law again.
2 I, Paul, promise you that Christ won't do you any good if you get circumcised.
3 If you do, you must obey the whole Law.
4 And if you try to please God by obeying the Law, you have cut yourself off from Christ and his wonderful kindness.
