Galatians 5:10

8 Such persuasion does not come from the One who calls you.

9 A little leaven works through the whole batch of dough.

I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

11 Now, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.

12 As for those who are agitating you, I wish they would proceed to emasculate themselves!

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
