48:004:016 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the
           truth?

48:004:017 They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would
           exclude you, that ye might affect them.

48:004:018 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good
           thing, and not only when I am present with you.

48:004:019 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until
           Christ be formed in you,

48:004:020 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice;
           for I stand in doubt of you.

48:004:021 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear
           the law?

48:004:022 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a
           bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

48:004:023 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but
           he of the freewoman was by promise.

48:004:024 Which things are an allegory:  for these are the two covenants;
           the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage,
           which is Agar.

48:004:025 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to
           Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

48:004:026 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of
           us all.

48:004:027 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not;
           break forth and cry, thou that travailest not:  for the
           desolate hath many more children than she which hath an
           husband.

48:004:028 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.

48:004:029 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him
           that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

48:004:030 Nevertheless what saith the scripture?  Cast out the bondwoman
           and her son:  for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir
           with the son of the freewoman.

48:004:031 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but
           of the free.

48:005:001 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made
           us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

48:005:002 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ
           shall profit you nothing.

48:005:003 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he
           is a debtor to do the whole law.

48:005:004 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are
           justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

48:005:005 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness
           by faith.

48:005:006 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing,
           nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
