Galatians 5:11 But, brothers, if I were still preaching that a person had to be circumcised, why am I being persecuted? Note: Paul’s argument seems to be “I must not be preaching circumcision since I am being persecuted by those who believe in it”. If I preached that a person had to be circumcised then my preaching that Christ died on the cross would not be such an offense to those who believe in it.
