Paul has argued that to submit to the law’s demands as a means of righteousness is to submit to a yoke of slavery, whereas those who submit to Christ are free. Today, he continues that train of thought by arguing that to submit to circumcision as a means of righteousness is to obligate yourself to the entire law. He encourages the church to reject the works of the flesh and embrace the fruit of Spirit which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. He encourages the church to share of their blessings with other believers, especially those who teach. As was commonplace, Paul was dictating his letter, but concludes by picking up the quill himself.
