That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

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?
This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.

As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
