For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
But if your brother is grieved with your food, you no longer walk in love. Destroy not him with your food, for whom Christ died.
For circumcision verily profits, if you keep the law: but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.
But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who takes vengeance? (I speak as a man)
I do not nullify the grace of God: for if righteousness comes by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offense of the cross ceased.
