Galatians 5:4

“You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.”

Verse in context — Galatians 5

Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will profit you nothing.

Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.

For we, through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of righteousness.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.

Freedom in Christ, apart from the law, through faith.
