Context Freedom in Christ
1Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. 2Behold, I Paul say to you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. 4Christ is become of no effect to you, whoever of you are justified by the law; you are fallen from grace. 5For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. 6For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love. 7You did run well; who did hinder you that you should not obey the truth? 8This persuasion comes not of him that calls you. 9A little leaven leavens the whole lump. 10I have confidence in you through the Lord, that you will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he be. 11And I, brothers, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offense of the cross ceased. 12I would they were even cut off which trouble you. 13For, brothers, you have been called to liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 15But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you be not consumed one of another.
