| 5 | Galatians | ||
| 1 | For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. | ||
| 2 | Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. | Christian Freedom Ga.5.2-15 | |
| 3 | I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law. | ||
| 4 | You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. | ||
| 5 | For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness. | ||
| 6 | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love. | ||
| 7 | You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth? | ||
| 8 | This persuasion is not from him who calls you. | ||
| 9 | A little leaven leavens the whole lump. | ||
| 10 | I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is. | ||
| 11 | But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed. | ||
| 12 | I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves! | ||
| 13 | For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another. | ||
| 14 | For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself." | - You shall love your neighbour as yourself. Ga.5.14 - Lv.19.18 | |
| 15 | But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another. | ||
| 16 | But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh. | The Fruit of the Spirit and the Works of the Flesh Ga.5.16-26 | |
| 17 | For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would. | ||
| 18 | But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law. | ||
| 19 | Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, | ||
| 20 | idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit, | ||
| 21 | envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. | ||
| 22 | But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, | ||
| 23 | gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law. | ||
| 24 | And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. | ||
| 25 | If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. | ||
| 26 | Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another. | ||
