Galatians 5:13-18

13For you were called to 1freedom, brothers and sisters; 2only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but 3serve one another through love. 14For 4the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, “5You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 15But if you 6bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

16But I say, 7walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out 8the desire of the flesh. 17For 9the desire of the flesh is against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, 10in order to keep you from doing whatever you want. 18But if you are 11led by the Spirit, 12you are not under the Law.
