Bear One Another’s Burdens

aBrothers, even if 1anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are bspiritual, crestore such a one din a spirit of gentleness, each of you looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. aBear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill bthe law of Christ. For aif anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But each one must aexamine his own work, and then he will have reason for bboasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another. For aeach one will bear his own load.

aAnd the one who is instructed in bthe word is to share in all good things with the one who instructs him. aDo not be deceived, bGod is not mocked, for cwhatever a man sows, this he will also reap. aFor the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap bcorruption, but cthe one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. aAnd let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we bdo not grow weary. 10 So then, 1awhile we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the bhousehold of cthe faith.

11 See with what large letters I 1am writing to you awith my own hand! 12 As many as are wanting ato make a good showing in the flesh, these are trying to bcompel you to be circumcised, simply so that they cwill not be persecuted 1for the cross of Christ. 13 For those who 1are circumcised do not even akeep 2the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may bboast in your flesh. 14 But amay it never be that I would boast, bexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, cthrough 1which the world has been crucified to me, and dI to the world. 15 For aneither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a bnew 1creation. 16 And those who will 1walk in step with this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the aIsrael of God.

17 From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the amarks of Jesus.

18 aThe grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be bwith your spirit, cbrothers. Amen.

For aif anyone thinks that he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But each one must aexamine his own work, and then he will have reason for bboasting, but 1to himself alone, and not 2to another. For aeach one will bear his own load.

aThe one who is taught bthe word is to share all good things with the one who teaches him. aDo not be deceived, bGod is not mocked; for cwhatever a person sows, this he will also reap. aFor the one who sows to his own flesh will reap bdestruction from the flesh, but cthe one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. aLet’s not become discouraged in doing good, for in due time we will reap, if we bdo not become weary. 10 So then, 1awhile we have opportunity, let’s do good to all people, and especially to those who are of the bhousehold of cthe faith.

11 See with what large letters I have written to you awith my own hand! 12 All who want ato make a good showing in the flesh try to bcompel you to be circumcised, simply so that they cwill not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For those who 1are circumcised do not even akeep 2the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may bboast in your flesh. 14 But 1afar be it from me to boast, bexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, cthrough 2which the world has been crucified to me, and dI to the world. 15 For aneither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a bnew 1creation. 16 And all who will follow this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the aIsrael of God.

17 From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the 1amarks of Jesus.

aBrothers, if anyone is caught in any sin, you who are bspiritual that is, you who are responsive to the guidance of the Spirit are to crestore such a person din a spirit of gentleness not with a sense of superiority or self-righteousness, keeping a watchful eye on yourself, so that you are not tempted as well. aCarry one another’s burdens and in this way you will fulfill the requirements of bthe law of Christ that is, the law of Christian love. John 13:34 For aif anyone thinks he is something special when in fact he is nothing special except in his own eyes, he deceives himself. But each one must carefully ascrutinize his own work examining his actions, attitudes, and behavior, and then he can have the bpersonal satisfaction and inner joy of doing something commendable 1without comparing himself to another. For aevery person will have to bear with patience his own burden of faults and shortcomings for which he alone is responsible.

aThe one who is taught bthe word of God is to share all good things with his teacher contributing to his spiritual and material support. aDo not be deceived, bGod is not mocked He will not allow Himself to be ridiculed, nor treated with contempt nor allow His precepts to be scornfully set aside; for cwhatever a man sows, this and this only is what he will reap. aFor the one who sows to his flesh his sinful capacity, his worldliness, his disgraceful impulses will reap from the flesh bruin and destruction, but cthe one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. aLet us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we bdo not give in. 10 So then, awhile we as individual believers have the opportunity, let us do good to all people not only being helpful, but also doing that which promotes their spiritual well-being, and especially be a blessing to those of the bhousehold of cfaith (born-again believers) .

11 See with what 1large letters I 2am writing to you awith my own hand. 12 Those who want ato make a good impression in public before the Jews try to bcompel you to be circumcised, just so they cwill escape being persecuted for faithfulness to the cross of Christ. 13 For even the circumcised Jews themselves do not really akeep the Law, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may bboast in your flesh that is, in the fact that they convinced you to be circumcised. 14 But afar be it from me to boast in anything or anyone, bexcept in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, cthrough whom the world has been crucified to me, and dI to the world. 15 For aneither is circumcision anything of any importance, nor uncircumcision, but only a bnew creation which is the result of a new birth—a spiritual transformation—a new nature in Christ Jesus. 16 Peace and mercy be upon all who walk by this rule who discipline themselves and conduct their lives by this principle, and upon the true aIsrael of God (Jewish believers) . Ps 125:5

17 From now on let no one trouble me by making it necessary for me to justify my authority as an apostle, and the absolute truth of the gospel, for I bear on my body the 1abranding-marks of Jesus the wounds, scars, and other outward evidence of persecutions—these testify to His ownership of me.

18 aThe grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be bwith your spirit, my 1cbrothers and sisters. Amen.
