Galatians 2:20–3:9

²⁰I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. ²¹I do not make void the grace of God: for if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nought.

3O foolish Galatians, who did bewitch you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was openly set forth crucified? ²This only would I learn from you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? ³Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now perfected in the flesh? ⁴Did ye suffer so many things in vain? if it be indeed in vain. ⁵He therefore that supplieth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? ⁶Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. ⁷Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham. ⁸And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all the nations be blessed. ⁹So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.
