³ Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

³ I repeat my warning: The person who accepts the ways of circumcision trades all the advantages of the free life in Christ for the obligations of the slave life of the law.

³ I'll say it again. If you are trying to find favor with God by being circumcised, you must obey every regulation in the whole law of Moses.
