* Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free , and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage . * Behold , I Paul say unto you , that if you be circumcised , Christ shall profit you nothing . * For I testify again to every man that is circumcised , that he is a debtor to do the whole law . * Christ is become of no effect unto you , whosoever of you are justified by the law ; you are fallen from grace . * For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith . * For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails any thing , nor uncircumcision ; but faith which works by love . * You did run well ; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth ? * This persuasion comes not of him that calls you . * A little leaven leavens the whole lump . * I have confidence in you through the Lord , that you will be none otherwise minded : but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment , whosoever he be . * And I , brothers , if I yet preach circumcision , why do I yet suffer persecution ? then is the offense of the cross ceased . * I would they were even cut off which trouble you . * For , brothers , you have been called unto liberty ; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh , but by love serve one another . * For all the law is fulfilled in one word , even in this ; * But if you bite and devour one another , take heed that you be not consumed one of another .
