For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 2 of Galatians. Paul rejects the idea that Christ promotes sin simply because justification is not obtained through the law. To rebuild the system that had been abandoned would mean reconstructing what the gospel had shown to be insufficient.

Wenn ich aber das, was ich zerbrochen habe, wiederum baue, so mache ich mich selbst zu einem Übertreter.
Porque si las cosas que destruí, las mismas vuelvo a edificar, transgresor me hago.
Porque si vuelvo a edificar lo que destruí, demuestro que yo mismo soy transgresor.
Car, si je rebâtis les choses que j'ai détruites, je me constitue moi-même un transgresseur,
Perciocchè, se io edifico di nuovo le cose che ho distrutte, io costituisco me stesso trasgressore.
Porque, se torno a edificar aquilo que destruí, constituo-me a mim mesmo transgressor.
如果我重新建造我所拆毀的,這就證明自己是違犯律法的人。
