1. Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
2. And all the brothers which are with me, to the churches of Galatia:
3. Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
1. Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.
2. And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
3. But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
1. O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
2. This only would I learn of you, Received you the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
3. Are you so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are you now made perfect by the flesh?
1. Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differs nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2. But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3. Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
1. Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2. Behold, I Paul say to you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
1. Brothers, if a man be overtaken in a fault, you which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.
2. Bear you one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
3. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
