Foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you not to obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth among you as crucified?
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,"
that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He doesn't say, "To seeds," as of many, but as of one, "To your seed," which is Christ.
Now I say this. A covenant confirmed beforehand by God in Christ, the law, which came four hundred thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect.
But the Scriptures imprisoned all things under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.
So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
For you are all children of God, through faith in Christ Jesus.
For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
If you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to promise.
That which was a temptation to you in my flesh, you didn't despise nor reject; but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
My little children, of whom I am again in travail until Christ is formed in you--
So you are no longer a bondservant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don't be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.
Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.
You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.
As many as desire to look good in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward.
make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our confidence firm to the end:
but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
So also Christ didn't glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him, "You are my Son. Today I have become your father."
Therefore leaving the teaching of the first principles of Christ, let us press on to perfection--not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God,
But Christ having come as a high priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
For Christ hasn't entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;
so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the Dispersion: Greetings.
My brothers, don't hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.
The Jews therefore came around him and said to him, "How long will you hold us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."
She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God's Son, he who comes into the world."
For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
He declared, and didn't deny, but he declared, "I am not the Christ."
The multitude answered him, "We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of Man?"
They asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"
He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah!" (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ.
but these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.
You yourselves testify that I said, 'I am not the Christ,' but, 'I have been sent before him.'
The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah comes," (he who is called Christ). "When he has come, he will declare to us all things."
"Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?"
