4 If you try to be made right with God through the law, your life with Christ is over—you have left God’s grace.
5 But we have the true hope that comes from being made right with God, and by the Spirit we wait eagerly for this hope.
6 When we are in Christ Jesus, it is not important if we are circumcised or not. The important thing is faith—the kind of faith that works through love.
7 You were running a good race. Who stopped you from following the true way?
8 This change did not come from the One who chose you.
9 Be careful! “Just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise.”
10 But I trust in the Lord that you will not believe those different ideas. Whoever is confusing you with such ideas will be punished.
