Galatians 5: 7 – 12

⁷You were running well.  Who hindered you from obeying the truth?  ⁸This persuasion is not from him who calls you.  ⁹A little leaven leavens the whole lump.  ¹⁰I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is.  ¹¹But if I, brothers, still preach circumcision, why am I still being persecuted?  In that case the offense of the cross has been removed.  ¹²I wish those who unsettle you would emasculate themselves!
