Galatians 6:12-14

CLV(i) 12 Whoever are wanting to put on a fair face in the flesh, these are compelling you to circumcise only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ Jesus." 13 For not even they who are circumcising are maintaining law, but they want you to be circumcised that they should be boasting in that flesh of yours." 14 Now may it not be mine to be boasting, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."
