3. Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?
4. Have you endured so many things for nothing, if indeed it was for nothing?
5. Does God give you the Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
6. Even Abraham “believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
7. Therefore know that those who are of faith are the sons of Abraham.
8. And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel in advance to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.”
9. So then those who are of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.
