Galatians 5:11-21
11 |
And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? Then the offense of the cross has ceased. |
12 |
I could wish that those who trouble you would even cut themselves off! |
13 |
For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. |
14 |
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." |
15 |
But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another! |
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. |
