Galatians 5:16-26 - Live By The Spirit And Reject The Deeds Of The Flesh

16 I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh. These are in opposition to one another that you may not do the things that you would. 18 But if the Spirit leads you, you are not under the Law.

19 Now the works of the flesh (sinful human nature) are apparent. They are: fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, wrath, contentions, divisions, sects, 21 envies, drunkenness, revelries, and things like these. I forewarn you, even as I did forewarn you, that those who practice such things would not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith, 23 meekness (mildness), self-control; against such there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have impaled the flesh with its passions and lusts. 25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. 26 Let us not become egotistical, stirring up competition with one another, envying one another.
