Pick A Verse! This passage from Galatians 5 used for the OP opens several topics for discussion,
including:
A. Liberty vs. Yoke of bondage.
B. If you become circumcised [see Acts 15:5], Christ will profit you nothing.
C. Debtor to keep the whole Law, as opposed to what? Keeping the commandments given
at Sinai? The four statutes given in Acts 15? Or something else.
D. Justified by the Law is a falling from Grace.
E. What does waiting for the hope of righteousness by faith suggest?
F. Faith working through Love.
Galatians 5:
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
3 And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.
4 You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law;
you have fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.
