Galatians 3:1-5

¹O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.

²I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

³Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?

⁴Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?

⁵Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
