God is one
by Faith alone
Belong to Christ if you believe
Your Inheritance is Salvation
Then Receive your Redemption.
Now you can walk with the Spirit
Don't try to Love
Don't seek your Joy
Don't work for Peace
Don't practice Patience
Don't improve your Kindness
Don't improve your Goodness
Don't try to be Faithful
Don't practice Gentleness
Don't work toward Self-Control.
Don't try of these things. That would be like trying to uphold the Law.
They are the Fruit of the Spirit.
God is one
Do just one thing
Keep in step with the Spirit
Walk with the Spirit and you will live
lovingly, joyfully, peacefully, patiently, faithfully, gently and controlled.
Don't try to avoid immorality, impurty, debauchery, and idolatry
Don't hold in hatred, discord, jealousy, and fits of rage
Don't try to beat down selfish ambition, dissensions, factions, envy, and drunkenness
Don't try to avoid these things. Because you can't.
They are the Acts of the Flesh.
Walk with the Spirit and the flesh will hold no power over you.
Christ gave us Freedom for Freedom's sake
Freedom to serve one another
Freedom to bear one another's burdens.
To follow the Law is to give a good outward impression
To embrace the Cross, to die to self, to live by faith, is to be a new creation.
You are among those called to belong to Christ.
You are a new creation.
Pray continually.
Ask the Spirit to come.
Keep in step with the Spirit.
