Hazardous additives – 06 – Galatians 5:16-26
This week in the penultimate message in Galatians, we come across arguably the best-known portion of Paul's letter, Galatian 5:16-26. This passage deals with "The fruit of the flesh vs. the fruit of the Spirit." The Galatians were being swayed towards living life in their own strength, in the strength of the flesh, and according to the Law. Paul wanted them to understand that if they chose that path, it would prove disastrous. Instead, they needed to choose the path of faith and live in the Spirit. The contrasting outcomes couldn't be more stark. What fruit are you producing? As Paul lists the defining characteristics of the fruit of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit, which will best describe you?
