  Galatians 5:11–21

  **Show the text**

  11 But I, brothers, if I still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.

  12 I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off.

  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.

  14 For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

  15 But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another.

  16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

  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.

  18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

  19 Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness,

  20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies,

  21 envy, 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 God’s Kingdom.
