tcent - Galatians:2:11-21

tcent@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

tcent@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to draw back and separate himself, fearing the party of the circumcision.

tcent@Galatians:2:13 @ The rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, with the result that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy.

tcent@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in the presence of them all, »If you, being a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how is it that you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?

tcent@Galatians:2:15 @ »We ourselves, who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners,

tcent@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not!

tcent@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I rebuild what I destroyed, I prove myself a transgressor.

tcent@Galatians:2:19 @ For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God.

tcent@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

tcent@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died for nothing.«
