Galatians 5:15

13 For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only ^ado not use liberty as an ^bopportunity for the flesh, but ^cthrough love serve one another.

14 For ^aall the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: ^b“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

15 But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!

Walking in the Spirit

16 I say then: ^aWalk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

17 For ^athe flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, ^bso that you do not do the things that you wish.

18 But ^aif you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

19 Now ^athe works of the flesh are evident, which are:¹ adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,

John Wesley's Notes

<< Galatians 5:14

Galatians 5:16 >>

But if - On the contrary, in consequence of the divisions which those troublers have occasioned among you, ye bite one another by evil speaking. And devour one another - By railing and clamour. Take heed ye be not consumed one of another - By bitterness, strife, and contention, our health and strength, both of body and soul, are consumed, as well as our substance and reputation.
