| Chapter 6
|
1 |
Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore
such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be
tempted. |
2 | Bear
ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. |
3 | For if a man think himself to be
something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. |
4 | But let every man prove his own
work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.
|
5 | For every man
shall bear his own burden. |
6
| Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that
teacheth in all good things. |
7 | Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he also reap. |
8 | For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap
corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life
everlasting. |
9 |
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we
faint not. |
10 | As
we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto
them who are of the household of faith. |
11 | Ye see how large a letter I have written unto
you with mine own hand. |
12
| As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain
you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross
of Christ. |
13 |
For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to
have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. |
14 | But God forbid that I should
glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is
crucified unto me, and I unto the world. |
15 | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision
availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. |
16 | And as many as walk according to
this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God. |
17 | From henceforth let no
man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus. |
18 | Brethren, the grace of
our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. |
