Galatians 5:4-8
English Standard Version
4 You are (A)severed from Christ, (B)you who would be justified[a] by the law; (C)you have fallen away from grace. 5 For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly (D)wait for the hope of righteousness. 6 For in Christ Jesus (E)neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but (F)only faith working through love.
7 (G)You were running well. Who hindered you from obeying (H)the truth? 8 This persuasion is not from (I)him who calls you.
