Epistle

Galatians 2.21-3.7

Read in context

2:21I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

3:1O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

3:2This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3:3Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

3:4Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.

3:5He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3:6Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

3:7Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.
