4 Those of you who try to be put right with God by obeying the Law have cut yourselves off from Christ. You are outside God's grace.
5 As for us, our hope is that God will put us right with him; and this is what we wait for by the power of God's Spirit working through our faith.
6 For when we are in union with Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor the lack of it makes any difference at all; what matters is faith that works through love.
7 You were doing so well! Who made you stop obeying the truth? How did he persuade you?
8 It was not done by God, who calls you.
9 “It takes only a little yeast to make the whole batch of dough rise,” as they say.
10 But I still feel confident about you. Our life in union with the Lord makes me confident that you will not take a different view and that the man who is upsetting you, whoever he is, will be punished by God.
