And this I say, A covenant having been established before by God in Christ, the Law coming into being four hundred and thirty years later, does not annul the promise, so as to abolish it.

But this I say, brethren, the time has been shortened, so that even those who have wives should be as though they had none,

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap eternal life.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

that the righteous requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors; not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently out of a pure heart,

For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

These are they who set themselves apart, sensual persons, not having the Spirit.

keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, sexual perversion, uncleanness, licentiousness,

envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

Let us walk decently, as in the day, not in carousings and drunkenness, not in cohabitation and licentiousness, not in strife and envy.

But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilements of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

among whom also we all formerly conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others;

In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ,

Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: sexual perversion, uncleanness, passion, evil lusts, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.

Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his practices,

as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts in your ignorance;

Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and sojourners, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has been released from sin,

For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in licentiousness, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life; is not of the Father but is of the world.
