Galatians 5:16-26
Walking in the Spirit
16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall
not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh
lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these
are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you
wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are
not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh
are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,
20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies,
outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21
envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you
beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice
such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But
the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control.
Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are
Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26
Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
