Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.

5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:

Salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and his Cross is the most important theme found in Galatians. The Letter of Paul to the Galatians follows his Second Letter to the Corinthians and precedes his Letter to the Ephesians in the New Testament of the Bible.
