Galatians 5:13-26 - Practice Love
13 For you, brothers, were called to freedom; only you must not let your freedom be an excuse for the gratification of your lower nature, but in love be slaves to one another. 14 For the whole law is summed up in one saying, "You must love your neighbor as you do yourself." 15 But if you continue to bite and eat one another, beware lest you are destroyed by one another.
16 I mean this: Practice living by the Spirit and then by no means will you gratify the cravings of your lower nature. 17 For the cravings of the lower nature are just the opposite to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are just the opposite of those of the lower nature; these two are opposed to each other, so that you cannot do anything you please. 18 But if you are guided by the Spirit, you are not subject to the law.
19 Now the practices of the lower nature are clear enough: Sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, quarreling, jealousy, anger, intrigues, dissensions, party-spirit, 21 envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I now warn you, as I have done before, that those who practice such things shall not be heirs of the kingdom of God.
22 But the product of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. There is no law against such things. 24 And those who belong to Jesus the Christ have crucified the lower nature with its passions and evil cravings. 25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk where the Spirit leads. 26 Let us stop being ambitious for honors, so challenging one another, envying one another.
