Love Fulfills the Law

7 You aran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?  
8 This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.
9 aA little leaven leavens the whole lump.  
10 I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.

Galatians 5:8

This persuasion - Of the necessity of your being circumcised and obeying the law of Moses, is not of him that calleth you. I never preached such a doctrine to you; I called you out of bondage to liberty, from a galling yoke to a cheerful service. Some translate , obedience or subjection. This subjection of yours to the Mosaic law is opposed to the will of God, and never was preached by me.
