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

No Other Gospel
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—
-
For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it.
-
They only heard the report: “The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”
-
If I rebuild what I destroyed, then I really would be a lawbreaker.
-
For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise.
-
My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,
-
For it is written: “Be glad, barren woman, you who never bore a child; shout for joy and cry aloud, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband.”
-
Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.
-
If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
-
So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
-
For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.
-
The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;
-
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
-
If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves.
-
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
-
Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
-
Peace and mercy to all who follow this rule—to the Israel of God.
