Galatians
5
Gal
5:1 Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us
free, and don't be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Gal
5:2 Behold, I, Paul, tell you that if you receive circumcision,
Christ will profit you nothing.
Gal
5:3 Yes, I testify again to every man who receives circumcision,
that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
Gal
5:4 You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by
the law. You have fallen away from grace.
Gal
5:5 For we, through the Spirit, by faith wait for the hope of
righteousness.
Gal
5:6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision amounts to anything,
nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.
Gal
5:7 You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should
not obey the truth?
Gal
5:8 This persuasion is not from him who calls you.
Gal
5:9 A little yeast grows through the whole lump.
Gal
5:10 I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will think no
other way. But he who troubles you will bear his judgment, whoever he
is.
Gal
5:11 But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still
persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.
Gal
5:12 I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off.
Gal
5:13 For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don't use your
freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one
another.
Gal
5:14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: "You
shall love your neighbor as yourself."
Gal
5:15 But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you
don't consume one another.
Gal
5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won't fulfill the lust
of the flesh.
Gal
5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against
the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do
the things that you desire.
Gal
5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Gal
5:19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery,
sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness,
Gal
5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of
anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies,
Gal
5:21 envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these;
of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those
who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
Gal
5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faith,
Gal
5:23 gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no
law.
Gal
5:24 Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its
passions and lusts.
Gal
5:25 If we live by the Spirit, let's also walk by the Spirit.
Gal
5:26 Let's not become conceited, provoking one another, and envying
one another.
