Ang Ating Kalayaan kay Kristo
1Pinalaya tayo ni Kristo sa ilalim ng Kautusan. Kaya manindigan kayo sa pananampalataya ninyo at huwag na kayong magpaaliping muli.
2Tandaan ninyo ang sinasabi ko: Ako mismong si Pablo ang nagsasabi sa inyo na kung magpapatuli kayo upang maging katanggap-tanggap sa Diyos, mawawalan ng kabuluhan ang ginawa ni Kristo para sa inyo. 3Inuulit ko na ang sinumang magpapatuli upang maging katanggap-tanggap sa Diyos ay kinakailangang sumunod sa buong Kautusan. 4Kayong mga nagsisikap na ituring na matuwid ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng Kautusan ay napalayo na kay Kristo. Nahiwalay na kayo sa biyaya ng Diyos. 5Ngunit sa tulong ng Espiritu, sabik kaming naghihintay na ituring kaming matuwid ng Diyos dahil sa aming pananampalataya. 6Sapagkat sa mga nakay Kristo Hesus, walang halaga ang pagiging tuli o hindi. Ang tanging mahalaga ay ang pananampalatayang nakikita sa pamamagitan ng pagmamahalan.
7Mabuti noon ang mga ginagawa ninyo. Sino ang pumigil sa inyo sa pagsunod sa katotohanan? 8Hindi maaaring ang Diyos ang pumigil sa inyo dahil siya ang tumawag sa inyo sa pananampalataya. 9Ang maling aral ay parang pampaalsa na kahit kaunti ay nakakapagpaalsa sa buong masa ng harina. 10Umaasa ako sa Panginoon na hindi kayo magpapadala sa ibang pananaw. Parurusahan ng Diyos ang mga nanggugulo sa inyo, maging sino man sila.
11May mga nagsasabing itinuturo ko raw na kailangan ang pagtutuli upang maging katanggap-tanggap sa Diyos. Kung totoo iyan, mga kapatid, bakit inuusig pa rin ako hanggang ngayon? At kung iyan nga ang itinuturo ko, walang kabuluhan ang mensahe tungkol sa kamatayan ni Kristo sa krus, ang mensaheng hindi matanggap ng iba. 12At sa mga nanggugulo naman sa inyo, hindi lang sana sila magpatuli kundi magpakapon na rin.
13Mga kapatid, tinawag kayo upang maging malaya. Ngunit huwag ninyong gamitin ang kalayaan nʼyo para pagbigyan ang mga pagnanasa ng laman. Sa halip, magmahalan kayoʼt magtulungan. 14Sapagkat ang buod ng buong Kautusan ay nasa isang utos: “Mahalin mo ang iyong kapwa gaya ng iyong sarili.”#5:14 Lev. 19:18. 15Ngunit kung patuloy kayong mag-aaway-away na parang mga hayop, baka tuluyan na ninyong masira ang buhay ng isaʼt isa.
Ang Pamumuhay sa Banal na Espiritu
16Kaya mamuhay kayo nang ayon sa Espiritu upang hindi ninyo mapagbigyan ang pagnanasa ng laman. 17Sapagkat ang ninanasa ng laman ay laban sa nais ng Espiritu, at ang nais ng Espiritu ay laban sa ninanasa ng laman. Magkalaban ang dalawang ito, kaya hindi ninyo magawa ang gusto ninyong gawin. 18Ngunit kung ginagabayan na kayo ng Espiritu, hindi na kayo sakop ng Kautusan.
19Ang mga taong sumusunod sa ninanasa ng laman ay makikilala sa gawa nila: seksuwal na imoralidad, kalaswaan, kahalayan, 20pagsamba sa mga diyos-diyosan, pangkukulam, pagkapoot, pag-aaway-away, pagkainggit, pagkamakasarili,#5:20 pagkamakasarili: O pagiging sakim. pagkagalit, pagkakawatak-watak, pagkakahati-hati, 21pagkainggit, paglalasing, pagkahilig sa kalayawan, at iba pang kasamaan. Binabalaan ko kayo tulad ng ginawa ko na noon: Ang mga namumuhay nang ganito ay hindi mapapabilang sa kaharian ng Diyos.
22Ngunit ito ang bungang makikita sa taong namumuhay sa kapangyarihan ng Espiritu: pag-ibig, kagalakan, kapayapaan, pagtitiis, kabutihan, kagandahang-loob, katapatan, 23kahinahunan, at pagpipigil sa sarili. Walang batas laban sa mga ito. 24Ipinako na ng mga nakay Kristo Hesus ang pagnanasa at masasamang hangarin ng kanilang laman doon sa krus. 25At dahil nga namumuhay na tayo sa kapangyarihan ng Espiritu, magpatuloy tayo sa patnubay nito. 26Huwag tayong maging mapagmataas, huwag nating galitin ang ating kapwa, at iwasan ang inggitan.

Galatians 5
5
1 IN [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off].
2 Notice, it is I, Paul, who tells you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no profit (advantage, avail) to you [for if you distrust Him, you can gain nothing from Him].
3 I once more protest and testify to every man who receives circumcision that he is under obligation and bound to practice the whole of the Law and its ordinances.
4 If you seek to be justified and declared righteous and to be given a right standing with God through the Law, you are brought to nothing and so separated (severed) from Christ. You have fallen away from grace (from God's gracious favor and unmerited blessing).
5 For we, [not relying on the Law but] through the [Holy] Spirit's [help], by faith anticipate and wait for the blessing and good for which our righteousness and right standing with God [our conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action, causes us] to hope.
6 For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love.
7 You were running the race nobly. Who has interfered in (hindered and stopped you from) your heeding and following the Truth?
8 This [evil] persuasion is not from Him Who called you [Who invited you to freedom in Christ].
9 A little leaven (a slight inclination to error, or a few false teachers) leavens the whole lump [it perverts the whole conception of faith or misleads the whole church].
10 [For my part] I have confidence [toward you] in the Lord that you will take no contrary view of the matter but will come to think with me. But he who is unsettling you, whoever he is, will have to bear the penalty.
11 But, brethren, if I still preach circumcision [as some accuse me of doing, as necessary to salvation], why am I still suffering persecution? In that case the cross has ceased to be a stumbling block and is made meaningless (done away).
12 I wish those who unsettle and confuse you would [go all the way and] cut themselves off!
13 For you, brethren, were [indeed] called to freedom; only [do not let your] freedom be an incentive to your flesh and an opportunity or excuse [for selfishness], but through love you should serve one another.
14 For the whole Law [concerning human relationships] is complied with in the one precept, You shall love your neighbor as [you do] yourself. [Lev. 19:18.]
15 But if you bite and devour one another [in partisan strife], be careful that you [and your whole fellowship] are not consumed by one another.
16 But I say, walk and live [habitually] in the [Holy] Spirit [responsive to and controlled and guided by the Spirit]; then you will certainly not gratify the cravings and desires of the flesh (of human nature without God).
17 For the desires of the flesh are opposed to the [Holy] Spirit, and the [desires of the] Spirit are opposed to the flesh (godless human nature); for these are antagonistic to each other [continually withstanding and in conflict with each other], so that you are not free but are prevented from doing what you desire to do.
18 But if you are guided (led) by the [Holy] Spirit, you are not subject to the Law.
19 Now the doings (practices) of the flesh are clear (obvious): they are immorality, impurity, indecency,
20 Idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger (ill temper), selfishness, divisions (dissensions), party spirit (factions, sects with peculiar opinions, heresies),
21 Envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you beforehand, just as I did previously, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,
23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [that can bring a charge].
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites and desires.
25 If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]
26 Let us not become vainglorious and self-conceited, competitive and challenging and provoking and irritating to one another, envying and being jealous of one another.
