osed one to another, so that you do
not what you wish. [5:18]But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not
under the law. [5:19]For the works of the flesh are manifest, which
are, fornication, impurity, lewdness, [5:20]idolatry, magic, enmities,
strife, envy, anger, contentions, dissensions, heresies, [5:21]murders,
drunkenness, revellings and the like, of which I tell you before, as I
have also previously told you, that those who do such things shall not
inherit the kingdom of God. [5:22]But the fruit of the Spirit is love,
joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, [5:23]meekness,
temperance; against such there is no law. [5:24]And the [subjects] of
Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its affections and desires.
[5:25]If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
[5:26]Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another,
envying one another.
4 [6:1]Brothers, if a man is overtaken with any fault, do you that are

For what a man sows, that shall he also reap; [6:8]for he that sows for
his flesh, shall of the flesh reap destruction; but he that sows for
the Spirit, shall of the Spirit reap life eternal. [6:9]Let us not be
weary of well doing; for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.
[6:10]As we have opportunity, therefore, let us do good to all, but
especially to the members of the family of the faith.
6 [6:11]You see with how long a letter I have written to you.
[6:12]Those who wish to make a fair appearance in the flesh compel you
to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted for the cross
of Christ. [6:13]For the circumcised themselves do not keep the law,
but they wish you to be circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.
[6:14]But far be it from me to glory, except in the cross of our Lord
Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me and I to the world.
[6:15]For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision any thing, nor
