11When then Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to the face, because he stood condemned.12For before certain men came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those of the circumcision.13And the rest of the Jews joined him in hypocrisy, so that even Barnabas was carried away with them by the hypocrisy.14But when I saw that they were not walking uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before all: If you, being a Jew, live in Gentile fashion and not in Jewish fashion, how can you compel the Gentiles to live as Jews?15We who are Jews by nature and not sinners from the Gentiles.16Yet knowing that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no flesh will be justified.17But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves were found sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not.18For if I rebuild what I destroyed, I prove myself a transgressor.19For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God; I have been crucified with Christ.20I live, yet no longer I, but Christ lives in me; and what I now live in the flesh, I live in faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.21I do not nullify the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died for nothing.
