Galatians 5

¹ The Messiah set us free! So stand firm in that freedom! Do not let anyone put chains on you again.

⁷ You were running the race so well! Who got in your way and stopped you from following the truth?

¹³ Brothers and sisters, God called you to be free! But do not use your freedom to feed your selfish wants. Serve each other with love instead.

¹⁶ Here is what I say. Walk with the Spirit. Then you will not give in to what your selfish body wants.

²² But the Spirit grows something different in you. Love. Joy. Peace. Waiting without giving up. Being kind. Being good. Trusting.
