Galatians 5:7-15

7You were doing so well. Who stopped you from being influenced by the truth?

8The arguments of the person who is influencing you do not come from the one who is calling you.

9A little yeast spreads through the whole batch of dough.

10The Lord gives me confidence that you will not disagree with this. However, the one who is confusing you will suffer God’s judgment regardless of who he is.

11Brothers and sisters, if I am still preaching that circumcision is necessary, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the cross wouldn’t be offensive anymore.

12I wish those troublemakers would castrate themselves.

13You were indeed called to be free, brothers and sisters. Don’t turn this freedom into an excuse for your corrupt nature to express itself. Rather, serve each other through love.

14All of Moses’ Teachings are summarized in a single statement, “Love your neighbor as you love yourself.”

15But if you criticize and attack each other, be careful that you don’t destroy each other.
