Galatians 5:22-25
(NIV)
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness and self-control. Against
such things there is no law.
24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have
crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us
keep in step with the Spirit. |
