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