Galatians 5 — Context

Envy, uncontrolled drinking and feasting, and such things: of which I give you word clearly, even as I did in the past, that they who do such things will have no part in the kingdom of God.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith,

Gentle behaviour, control over desires: against such there is no law.

And those who are Christ's have put to death on the cross the flesh with its passions and its evil desires.

If we are living by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us be guided.

Let us not be full of self-glory, making one another angry, having envy of one another.
