Chapter 5
Stand in freedom. Fruit of the Spirit
26 verses
Key verse — Galatians 5:1
In the freedom therefore with which Christ freed us, stand, and do not be held-in again with a yoke of slavery.

1 In the freedom therefore with which Christ freed us, stand, and do not be held-in again with a yoke of slavery.

2 Behold, I Paul say to you that if you are circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.

3 And I witness again to every man being circumcised that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

4 You were rendered-idle from Christ, whoever are being justified in law; you fell-out from the grace.

5 For we in Spirit out of faith await a hope of righteousness.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has strength anything nor uncircumcision, but faith being in-worked through love.

7 You were running well; who cut-in on you not to be persuaded to the truth?

8 The persuasion is not out of the one calling you.

9 A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

10 I have trusted unto you in Lord that you will think nothing other; and the one troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

11 And I, brothers, if I still proclaim circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? Then the stumbling-block of the cross has been rendered-idle.

12 Would that those unsettling you would also cut themselves off.

13 For you were called upon freedom, brothers; only not the freedom unto an starting-point to the flesh, but through the love serve as slaves to one another.

14 For the whole law in one word is fulfilled, in the You will love your neighbor as yourself.

15 And if you bite and eat-down one another, look lest you be consumed-down by one another.

16 And I say, Walk in Spirit, and you will by no means complete a desire of flesh.

17 For the flesh desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these lie-opposite to one another, that whatever you may will, these you may not do.

18 And if you are led by Spirit, you are not under law.

19 And the works of the flesh are manifest, which are adultery, fornication, uncleanness, unbridledness,

20 idolatry, pharmacy, enmities, strifes, jealousies, furies, rivalries, divisions, sects,

21 envies, murders, drunkennesses, revelings, and the like of these, which I say-before to you, according as I also said-before, that those practicing such things will not inherit kingdom of God.

22 And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-temper, kindness, goodness, faith,

23 meekness, inward-rule; against such things there is no law.

24 And those of the Christ crucified the flesh with the passions and the desires.

25 If we live in Spirit, in Spirit also let us keep-step.

26 Let us not become empty-glory ones, calling-alongside one another, envying one another.

1 Note — v. 1. TR: τῇ ἐλευθερίᾳ οὖν ᾗ Χριστὸς ἡμᾶς ἠλευθέρωσεν. “In the freedom therefore with which Christ freed us.”

2 Note — v. 19. TR: μοιχεία. “adultery.”

3 Note — v. 21. TR: φόνοι. “murders.”

Devotional: Casting on the Right Side

John 21:1–14 (Focus on John 21:6) «"He said to them, 'Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.' So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish." — John 21:6 (ESV)» Empty Nets and Endless Effort After a long night of fishing, the disciples—experienced fishermen who knew the sea well—had nothing to show for their labor. Their nets were empty. Their bodies were exhausted. Their expectations had faded. They had relied on everything they knew: their experience, their skill, and their determination. Many of us know that feeling. We work harder, plan better, and keep trying to produce results through our own strength, yet our nets remain empty. Then Jesus appears on the shore. Although the disciples do not recognize Him at first, He gives them a remarkably simple instruction: «"Cast the net on the right side of the boat."» At first glance, the command almost seems unreasonable. The fish ...
