18 For if I build again those things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19 For I (A)through the law (B)died to the law that I might (C)live to God. 20 I have been (D)crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh (E)I live by faith in the Son of God, (F)who loved me and gave Himself for me. 21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for (G)if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died [a]in vain.”

Justification by Faith(H)

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you [b]that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed [c]among you as crucified? This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, (I)or by the hearing of faith? Are you so foolish? (J)Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by (K)the flesh?
