Faith Alone, Part 5<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

Galatians 5:13-26<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

LIBERTY TO LOVE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Galatians 5:13-15 (ESV)
\n<\/strong>13 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
\n14 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0For the whole law is fulfilled in one word: \u201cYou shall love your neighbor as yourself.\u201d
\n15 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.<\/p>\n

John 13:34-35 (ESV)
\n<\/strong>34 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.<\/span>
\n35 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WALKING HIS WILL<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Galatians 5:16-18 (ESV)
\n<\/strong>16 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
\n17 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
\n18 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. <\/span><\/p>\n

Romans 8:1-4 (ESV)
\n<\/strong>1 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
\n2 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.
\n3 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,
\n4 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

CONTRAST OF CHARACTER<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Galatians 5:19-26 (ESV)
\n<\/strong>19 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality,
\n20 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions,
\n21 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
\n22 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
\n23 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
\n24 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
\n25 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit.
\n26 <\/span><\/sup>\u00a0Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another. <\/span><\/p>\n
