1 You people in Galatia were told very clearly about the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. But you were foolish; you let someone trick you.
2 Tell me this one thing: How did you receive the Holy Spirit? Did you receive the Spirit by following the law? No, you received the Spirit because you heard the Good News and believed it.
3 You began your life in Christ by the Spirit. Now are you trying to make it complete by your own power? That is foolish.
4 Were all your experiences wasted? I hope not!
