Galatians 5:6
Galatians 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision. It made no difference in the sight of God whether a Christian was a circumcised Jew or an uncircumcised Gentile. Both stood on the same footing. It did make a great difference, though, if the Gentile Christian became circumcised in order to keep the law (Galatians 5:2). It is true Paul circumcised Timothy, but it was not to keep the law. See PNT "Ga 2:3". But faith which worketh by love. But faith availeth—the faith in Christ; the faith which uses love as its medium and method of working. There is first faith in Christ; then the love of Christ.
