But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.

But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.

13. “Walk according to...” Galatians 5:19,22-23

Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
