그러나 성령의 열매는
사랑과 기쁨과 화평과 오래 참음과 부드러움과 선함과 믿음과 온유와 절제니
이 같은 것을 대적할 법이 없느니라.
그리스도께 속한 사람들은 애착들과 정욕들과 함께 육신을 십자가에 못 박았느니라.
만일 우리가 성령 안에서 살면 또한 성령 안에서 걸을지니
우리가 헛된 영광을 구하여 서로 노엽게 하거나 서로 시기하지 말지니라.
-갈라디아서 5:22-26
22 But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness,
23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law [ that can bring a charge].
24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus (the Messiah) have crucified the flesh (the godless human nature) with its passions and appetites and desires.
25 If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]
26 Let us not become vainglorious and self-conceited, competitive and challenging and provoking and irritating to one another, envying and being jealous of one another.
