Who

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not burn with grief?

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not burn with grief?

The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is forever worthy of praise, knows that I am not lying.

I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of it I do not know, but God knows.

I am afraid that when I come again, my God will humble me before you, and I will be grieved over many who have sinned earlier and have not repented of their acts of impurity, sexual immorality, and debauchery.

I already warned you the second time I was with you. So now in my absence I warn those who sinned earlier and everyone else: If I return, I will not spare anyone,

Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead—

…who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,

I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—

But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased

…nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles who came before me, but I went into Arabia and later returned to Damascus.

They only heard the account: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”

Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek.

For the One who was at work in Peter’s apostleship to the circumcised was also at work in my apostleship to the Gentiles.

When I saw that they were not walking in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas in front of them all, “If you, who are a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?”

We who are Jews by birth and not Gentile “sinners”

I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.

Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.

So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”

All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”

The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”

The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.

But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.

For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

Formerly, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those who by nature are not gods.

Tell me, you who want to be under the law, do you not understand what the law says?

For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”

For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”

For it is written: “Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”

Again I testify to every man who gets himself circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

You were running so well. Who has obstructed you from obeying the truth?

Such persuasion does not come from the One who calls you.

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

As for those who are agitating you, I wish they would proceed to emasculate themselves!

…and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Brothers, if someone is caught in a trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him with a spirit of gentleness. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.

Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word must share in all good things with his instructor.

The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Those who want to make a good impression outwardly are trying to compel you to be circumcised. They only do this to avoid persecution for the cross of Christ.

Peace and mercy to all who walk by this rule, even to the Israel of God.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.

In Him we were also chosen as God’s own, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything by the counsel of His will,

…in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, would be for the praise of His glory.

…who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.

…who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.

…and the surpassing greatness of His power to us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength,

…which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

…in which you used to walk when you conformed to the ways of this world and of the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit who is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,

Therefore remember that formerly you who are Gentiles in the flesh and called uncircumcised by the so-called circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)—

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.

For He Himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has torn down the dividing wall of hostility

He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.

He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.

…and to illuminate for everyone the stewardship of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us,

…one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.

He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.

He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.

And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.

He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.

Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.

In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

And masters, do the same for your slaves. Give up your use of threats, because you know that He who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with Him.

Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.

…being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

…without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a clear sign of their destruction but of your salvation, and it is from God.

Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,

For it is God who works in you to will and to act on behalf of His good purpose.

I have nobody else like him who will genuinely care for your needs.

But I thought it necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my needs.

For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about some issue, God will reveal this to you as well.

Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who walk according to the pattern we set for you.

…who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body.

Yes, and I ask you, my true yokefellow, to help these women who have contended at my side for the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.

Greet all the saints in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you greetings.

You learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf,

…and who also informed us of your love in the Spirit.

…giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light.

For I want you to know how much I am struggling for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not met me face to face,

And you have been made complete in Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.

And having been buried with Him in baptism, you were raised with Him through your faith in the power of God, who raised Him from the dead.

Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you with speculation about what he has seen. Such a person is puffed up without basis by his unspiritual mind.

When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.

With him I am sending Onesimus, our faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you about everything here.

Jesus, who is called Justus, also sends greetings. These are the only Jews among my fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have been a comfort to me.

Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you greetings. He is always wrestling in prayer for you, so that you may stand mature and fully assured in the full will of God.

Brothers who are beloved by God, we know that He has chosen you,
