Galatians 5:3-5

New Century Version

³ Again, I warn every man: If you allow yourselves to be circumcised, you must follow all the law. ⁴ If you try to be made right with God through the law, your life with Christ is over—you have left God’s grace. ⁵ But we have the true hope that comes from being made right with God, and by the Spirit we wait eagerly for this hope.
