Book 48 : GALATIANS - Chapter 002
002:001
And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that
gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to
them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run,
or had run, in vain
002:002
But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was
compelled to be circumcised
002:003
And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage
002:004
To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that
the truth of the gospel might continue with you
002:005
But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were,
it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for
they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to
me
002:006
But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the
uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the
circumcision was unto Peter
002:007
(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship
of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the
Gentiles:
002:008
And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars,
perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me
and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go
unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision
002:009
Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same
which I also was forward to do
002:010
But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the
face, because he was to be blamed
002:011
For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the
Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated
himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision
002:012
And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that
Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation
002:013
But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the
truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If
thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and
not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live
as do the Jews
002:014
We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles
002:015
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law,
but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in
Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of
Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of
the law shall no flesh be justified
002:016
But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves
also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of
sin? God forbid
002:017
For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make
myself a transgressor
002:018
For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live
unto God
002:019
I am crucified with Christ: neverthless I live; yet not I, but
Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the
flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and
gave himself for me
002:020
I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come
by the law, then Christ is dead in vain
