the flesh persecuted him
that was born
after the Spirit, even so
it is
now.
30
Nevertheless what saith
the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir
with the son of the free woman.
31
So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but
of the free.
CHAPTER 5
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again
with the yoke of bondage.
2
Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3
For I
testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4
Christ is
become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
5
For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6
For in Jesus Christ neither
circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
7
Ye did run
well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
8
This persuasion
cometh
not of him
that calleth you.
9
A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
10
I have confidence in you through
the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment,
whosoever he be.
11
And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution?
then is the offence of the cross ceased.
12
I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
13
For,
brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only
use
not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by
love serve one another.
14
For all the law is fulfilled in one word,
even
in this; Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself.
15
But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed
one of another.
16
This
I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the
one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
18
But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye
are not under the law.
19
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are
these;
Adultery,
fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20
Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath,
strife, seditions, heresies,
21
Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which
I tell you before, as I have also told
you
in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit
the kingdom of God.
22
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness,
goodness, faith,
23
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24
And they that are Christ’s
have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in
the Spirit.
26
Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
CHAPTER 6
