Galatians 2:21

---

← Galatians 2:20	Galatians 2:21 (KJV)	Galatians 3:1 →
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.	I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.	O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
