What does the Bible say about the consequences of circumcision?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that if one is circumcised, Christ will profit them nothing and they become a debtor to the whole law.

In Galatians 5:2-4, Paul outlines four dire consequences of circumcision for believers: first, Christ shall profit you nothing; second, you are a debtor to fulfill the whole law; third, if justified by the law, Christ becomes of no effect; and finally, you have fallen from grace. This means that relying on any act, such as circumcision or adherence to the law, undermines the sufficiency of Christ's grace and work in salvation.
