594. Don't be severed from Christ

Don’t be severed from Christ – Galatians 5:1-6

Galatians 5:1-6

5 Stand fast therefore in the liberty (freedom to to go where one will) wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage (servitude).

² Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

³ For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

⁴ Christ is become of no effect unto you (Ye were severed from Christ), whosoever of you are justified (set forth as righteous) by (remaining within) the law; ye are fallen (fallen off) from grace.

⁵ For we through the Spirit (operations of the holy spirit) wait (anxious looking with outstretched hand) for the hope (the expectation of future good) of righteousness by (out from the origins of) faith (a firm persuasion).

⁶ For in (remaining within) Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth (to be strong, mighty, powerful in anything) any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh (working) by (through) love.
