Galatians 4:28

CONTEXT- Doctrinal error stated Galatians 3:1-5:26 Ch 3 1 O senseless Galatians! Who has cast a spell on you? Before your eyes the crucifixion of Jesus Christ was graphically declared and posted. 2 Let me ask you this one question. How did you receive the gift of the spirit in manifestation? By the deeds of the law or by believing what you heard? 3 Are you so foolish as to believe that, having previously begun by the spirit, you are now made perfect by religious deeds of the flesh? 4 You put up with so many things without a cause.
