Galatians 3:1–5

Faith or Works of the Law

3 You foolishv Galatians!w Who has bewitched you?x Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.y 2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spiritz by the works of the law,a or by believing what you heard?b 3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?a 4 Have you experiencedb so much in vain—if it really was in vain? 5 So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miraclesc among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard?d
