For if I put up again those things which I gave to destruction, I am seen to be a wrongdoer.
And if because of food your brother is troubled, then you are no longer going on in the way of love. Do not let your food be destruction to him for whom Christ went into death.
It is true that circumcision is of use if you keep the law, but if you go against the law it is as if you had it not.
But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry as men may say?
I do not make the grace of God of no effect: because if righteousness is through the law, then Christ was put to death for nothing.
But I, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still attacked? then has the shame of the cross been taken away.
