For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision accomplishes anything; what matters is faith working through love.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek.

affliction and distress for every human being who does evil, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek;

but glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, first to the Jew, and also to the Greek.

Or is God for Jews only? Is He not also for Gentiles? Yes, for Gentiles too,

since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.

And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while still uncircumcised. This was to make him the father of all who believe but are not circumcised, so that righteousness may be credited to them also.

And he became the father of the circumcised, not only to those who are circumcised, but also to those who follow in the footsteps of the faith our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

on us whom He also called, not only from the Jews but also from the Gentiles?

for there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, since the same Lord of all is rich to all who call on Him.

But how can they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe without hearing about Him? And how can they hear without a preacher?

Circumcision does not matter and uncircumcision does not matter, but keeping God's commandments does.

For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-- whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free-- and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

This was not made known to people in other generations as it is now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit:

I was made a servant of this [gospel] by the gift of God's grace that was given to me by the working of His power.

and to shed light for all about the administration of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things.

Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all.

For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the Christian husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.

But I have other sheep that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock, one shepherd.

and not for the nation only, but also to unite the scattered children of God.

I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe in Me through their message.

May they all be one, as You, Father, are in Me and I am in You. May they also be one in Us, so the world may believe You sent Me.

For as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of that body, though many, are one body-- so also is Christ.

But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah.

He did away with the law of the commandments in regulations, so that He might create in Himself one new man from the two, resulting in peace.

When [Christ] came, He proclaimed the good news of peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near.

So then you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with the saints, and members of God's household,

The whole building is being fitted together in Him and is growing into a holy sanctuary in the Lord,

There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope at your calling;

But speaking the truth in love, let us grow in every way into Him who is the head-- Christ.

From Him the whole body, fitted and knit together by every supporting ligament, promotes the growth of the body for building up itself in love by the proper working of each individual part.
