Summary
Galatians 5:19-24 - Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

| 0:00.0 | Good morning my friends and welcome back to the morning mindset. It's time for you and me |
| 0:07.5 | to get our minds aligned with the truth of God and today that looks like a comparison. |
| 0:13.0 | We're going to be looking at what it looks like to live a life |
| 0:18.2 | that is fueled by the spirit of God |
| 0:21.2 | compared to a life that is fueled by what Paul calls our flesh |
| 0:26.7 | which is the sinful habits and patterns that we've developed in this life. You see that comparison is important because it's |
| 0:36.2 | good sometimes for us to get in our minds what it looks like to truly accomplish the things we're wanting to accomplish. |
| 0:45.0 | Now it'll make a lot more sense when we dig into it here. This is Galatians |
| 0:50.0 | chapter 5 verse number 16. |
| 0:53.8 | Paul says, but I say walk by the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the |
| 0:58.5 | flesh. |
| 0:59.5 | For the desires of the flesh are against the spirit and the desires of the spirit are |
| 1:03.4 | against the flesh for these are opposed to each other to keep you from doing the |
| 1:07.8 | things you want to do. But if you're led by the spirit, you are not under the law. |
| 1:14.1 | So Paul has just set the stage. |
| 1:16.0 | He's saying, you don't want to live by the flesh. |
| 1:19.0 | You want to live by the spirit. |
| 1:21.5 | And so it begs the question, |
| 1:23.2 | what does that mean to live by the spirit? |
| 1:26.7 | What's the practical outcome of that |
| 1:29.3 | compared to what it means to live in the flesh. |
| 1:33.0 | Paul heard the question. |
