8 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.
9 And let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not give up.
10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
11 You see what large letters I have written to you with my own hand.
12 It is those who desire to make a good showing in the flesh that try to compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
13 For they themselves who are circumcised do not keep the law. But they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh.
14 God forbid that I should boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
