Mas eu digo: Persisti em andar por espírito, e não executareis nenhum desejo carnal. Pois a carne é contra o espírito no seu desejo, e o espírito contra a carne; porque estes estão opostos um ao outro, de modo que as próprias coisas que gostaríeis de fazer, não fazeis. Ademais, se estais sendo conduzidos por espírito, não estais debaixo de lei.
Ora, as obras da carne são manifestas, as quais são fornicação, impureza, conduta desenfreada, idolatria, prática de espiritismo, inimizades, rixa, ciúme, acessos de ira, contendas, divisões, seitas, invejas, bebedeiras, festanças e coisas semelhantes a estas. Quanto a tais coisas, aviso-vos de antemão, do mesmo modo como já vos avisei de antemão, de que os que praticam tais coisas não herdarão o reino de Deus.
Por outro lado, os frutos do espírito são amor, alegria, paz, longanimidade, benignidade, bondade, fé, brandura, autodomínio. Contra tais coisas não há lei. Além disso, os que pertencem a Cristo Jesus pregaram na estaca a carne com as suas paixões e desejos.
Se estamos vivendo por espírito, continuemos também a andar ordeiramente por espírito. Não fiquemos egotistas, atiçando competição entre uns e outros, invejando-nos uns aos outros.
But I say, Keep walking by spirit and YOU will carry out no fleshly desire at all. For the flesh is against the spirit in its desire, and the spirit against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, so that the very things that YOU would like to do YOU do not do. Furthermore, if YOU are being led by spirit, YOU are not under law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, and they are fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct, idolatry, practice of spiritism, enmities, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, contentions, divisions, sects, envies, drunken bouts, revelries, and things like these. As to these things I am forewarning YOU, the same way as I did forewarn YOU, that those who practice such things
will not inherit God’s kingdom.
On the other hand, the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. Moreover, those who belong to Christ Jesus impaled the flesh together with its passions and desires.
If we are living by spirit, let us go on walking orderly also by spirit. Let us not become egotistical, stirring up competition with one another, envying one another.
