Galatians 6:12-15

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Galatians 6:12-15

12Those 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.
13For the circumcised do not even keep the law themselves, yet they want you to be circumcised that they may boast in your flesh.
14But 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.
15For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What counts is a new creation.
— Galatians 6:12-15
