I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view

Galatians 5:7-12
You were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep you from obeying the truth? That kind of persuasion does not come from the one who calls you. “A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.” I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion, whoever that may be, will have to pay the penalty.  Brothers and sisters, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished. As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!
Paul is so intended by those who have unsettled his young converts that he could wish they would go all the way and emasculate way themselves!
Why?
Paul encouraged people of Galatians, they were running a good race and has confidence in the Lord that they take no other view.
Paul did not preach the circumcision, if he did so, why he was being persecuted? For he preaches the truth so Jewish were against him.
How?
It is not easy to keep the truth in this world, but God is with us. I am not afraid, the Lord is my strength and my way.
