Galatians 2:14-16 But, when I saw that they did not act in harmony with the principles of the truth of the Gospel message, I said to Cephas in front of everyone, “If you, being a Jew, act like a Gentile by showing such discrimination, how do you expect to persuade Gentiles to live like Jews i.e., like Christian Jews who are taught to love all people?”

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ But, when I saw that they did not act in harmony with [the principles of] the truth of the Gospel [message], I said to Cephas in front of everyone, “If you, being a Jew, act like a Gentile [by showing such discrimination], how do you expect to persuade Gentiles to live like Jews [i.e., like Christian Jews who are taught to love all people]?” ¹⁵ Although we are Jews by natural birth, and not sinful Gentiles [who do not have a relationship with God], ¹⁶ still we know that a person is not justified [i.e., made right with God] by [perfect obedience to] the law of Moses, but rather through faith in [the person and work of] Christ. [Knowing this] we have trusted in Christ Jesus [to save us], so that we might be made right with God by trusting in Him and not by [our compliance with] the requirements of the law of Moses. Because by such law-compliance no one can be made right with God.
