2.6 KiB
Christian Liberty
Chapter 5
-
Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
-
Indeed I, Paul, say to you that if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.
-
And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised that he is a debtor to keep the whole law.
-
You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace.
-
For we through the Spirit eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
-
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.Love Fulfills the Law
-
You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?
-
This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.
-
A little leaven leavens the whole lump.
-
I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.
-
And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? Then the offense of the cross has ceased.
-
I could wish that those who trouble you would even cut themselves off!
-
For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
-
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
-
But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!Walking in the Spirit
-
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
-
For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.
-
But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
-
Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,
-
idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,
-
envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
-
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
-
gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
-
And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
-
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
-
Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
