Jesus in Galatians

The Berean Standard Bible is shown; switch to the King James or American Standard Version.

1. 1:1

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

2. 1:3

   Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,

3. 1:6

   I am amazed how quickly you are deserting the One who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—

4. 1:7

   which is not even a gospel. Evidently some people are troubling you and trying to distort the gospel of Christ.

5. 1:10

   Am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

6. 1:12

   I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

7. 1:16

   to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood,

8. 1:22

   I was personally unknown, however, to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.

9. 2:4

   This issue arose because some false brothers had come in under false pretenses to spy on our freedom in Christ Jesus, in order to enslave us.

10. 2:16

    know that a man is not justified by works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.

11. 2:17

    But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we ourselves are found to be sinners, does that make Christ a minister of sin? Certainly not!

12. 2:20

    I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

13. 2:21

    I do not set aside the grace of God. For if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.

14. 3:1

    O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.

15. 3:13

    Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”

16. 3:14

    He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.

17. 3:16

    The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.

18. 3:17

    What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.

19. 3:22

    But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.

20. 3:24

    So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

21. 3:26

    You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

22. 3:27

    For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

23. 3:28

    There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

24. 4:4

    But when the time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

25. 4:6

    And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”

26. 4:7

    So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, you are also an heir through God.

27. 4:14

    And although my illness was a trial to you, you did not despise or reject me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God, as if I were Christ Jesus Himself.

28. 4:19

    My children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,

29. 5:1

    It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.

30. 5:2

    Take notice: I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.

31. 5:4

    You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

32. 5:6

    For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. What matters is faith expressing itself through love.

33. 5:10

    I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

34. 6:2

    Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

35. 6:12

    Those who want to make a good impression outwardly are trying to compel you to be circumcised. They only do this to avoid persecution for the cross of Christ.

36. 6:14

    But as for me, may I never boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

37. 6:15

    For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What counts is a new creation.

38. 6:17

    From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

39. 6:18

    The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
