1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free and do not be entangled again with the yoke of slavery.
2 Behold, I, Paul, say unto you that if ye become circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4 Ye are empty of the Christ, whosoever of you that justify yourselves by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything nor uncircumcision, but faith which works by charity.
