The Importance of Circumcision

Paul reminds us that in this new Jesus economy, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What matters is whether we are being made into a new creation. Some have suggested that Paul's kind of point underneath his point is using a play on words to say, if they don't really want to be Jewish, they should just stop claiming to be Jewish. The idea, the ideas of inclusion and absolute truth are not mutually exclusive.
