You cannot sow to the flesh and get the benefits of the spirit.

Dr. Tony Evans says sin's pleasure is short-lived, and its payoff costly.

When you feed the flesh, it will satisfy a desire, but it will produce a corruption.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

We tend to celebrate accomplishments that make us look good, but scripture calls us to boast in something

else entirely. Today, Dr. Evans explains why the cross is really our only true source of identity and confidence

in how it redefines the way we see ourselves and others. Let's join him in Galatians chapter 6.

And now he comes to the law of sowing and reaping. Do not be deceived. God is not mocked. Whatever a man sows, this he will also reap.

For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the spirit will from the

spirit reap eternal life. This is the law of sewing and reaping. The world is made up of laws,

that is, rules by which the world works.

The most popular law, the most familiar law that we are familiar with is the law of gravity.

The law, it's a law, means you can bank on that consistently being true.

Okay?

If you couldn't bank on that, a lot of things you do, you would not do.

Because you're not sure whether that law is going to work or not.

But because it is a law that is non-changeable reality to it, you can fly planes,

you can drive cars, you can jump up and down. The law of gravity simply says in common

colloquial language, what goes up must come down. So when it comes to a physical law of the world, it means there is a consistent expectation

and anticipation of what the outcome is going to be because the law is dependable.

So that's the law.

Just as there are physical laws that govern our lives
