Galatians 516...
I say then Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not
fulfill the lust of the flesh.
It is demanded for every Christian to walk
according to the Spirit. We are not supposed to
walk different from what our nature is

1.We are spiritual people.
Galatians 611Brethren, if a man is overtaken in
any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such
a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering
yourself lest you also be tempted.
2.We walk now in newness of life.
Romans 644Therefore we were buried with Him
through baptism into death, that just as Christ
was raised from the dead by the glory of the
Father, even so we also should walk in newness of
life.
3.We Put on Christ.
Galatians 327 27For as many of you as were
baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

The fruits of the Spirit. Have you heard about
them?
6
Walk in the Spirit,
Galatians 522,23
This is the result of having the Spirit dwelling
in us!!
22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy,
peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control. Against
such there is no law.
7
LOVE.
Is this TOO HARD TO PRACTICE?
8
What comes to your mind when you hear this word?
1 John 419
We love Him because He first loved us.
How did He first love us?
9
How can I show this fruit in my life?
Love is not easy.
Acts 242
42 And they continued steadfastly in the
apostles doctrine and fellowship, in the
breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Is this the Lords supper?
10
We must be willing to apply the Bible in our
lives.
John 1334,35 A new commandment I give to you,
that you love one another as I have loved you,
that you also love one another. 35By this all
will know that you are My disciples, if you have
love for one another.
John 1512, 17 This is My commandment, that
you love one another as I have loved you. These
things I command you, that you love one another.
11
Romans 138-10 Owe no one anything except to love
one another, for he who loves another has
fulfilled the law. 9For the commandments, You
shall not commit adultery, You shall not
murder, You shall not steal, You shall not
bear false witness, You shall not covet, and
if there is any other commandment, are all summed
up in this saying, namely, You shall love your
neighbor as yourself. 10Love does no harm to a
neighbor therefore love is the fulfillment of
the law.
1 Thessalonians 312 And may the Lord make you
increase and abound in love to one another and to
all, just as we do to you,
12
1 Thessalonians 49 But concerning brotherly
love you have no need that I should write to you,
for you yourselves are taught by God to love one
another
1 Peter 122,23 Since you have purified your
souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in
sincere love of the brethren, love one another
fervently with a pure heart, 23having been born
again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible,
through the word of God which lives and abides
forever,
13
1 John 311 For this is the message that you
heard from the beginning, that we should love one
another,
1 John 323. And this is His commandment that
we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus
Christ and love one another, as He gave us
commandment.
1 John 47,11,12. By this we know the spirit of
truth and the spirit of error. 7Beloved, let us
love one another, for love is of God and
everyone who loves is born of God and knows God
11Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to
love one another. 12No one has seen God at any
time. If we love one another, God abides in us,
and His love has been perfected in us.
14
2 John 5 And now I plead with you, lady, not
as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but
that which we have had from the beginning that
we love one another.
Why do you think there is so much spoken in the
Bible about love?
hard
15
Can you imagine if Jesus would ever think the
same way?
Matthew 545,46 that you may be sons of your
Father in heaven for He makes His sun rise on
the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the
just and on the unjust. 46For if you love those
who love you, what reward have you? Do not even
the tax collectors do the same?
16
Romans 58 But God demonstrates His own love
toward us, in that while we were still sinners,
Christ died for us.
1 Peter 31818 For Christ also suffered once for
sins, the just for the unjust, that He might
bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh
but made alive by the Spirit,
Luke 2334 Then Jesus said, Father, forgive
them, for they do not know what they do. And
they divided His garments and cast lots.
17
Love is a fruit of the Spirit.
2 Timothy 219 Nevertheless the solid foundation
of God stands, having this seal The Lord knows
those who are His, and, Let everyone who names
the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
18
What can love do for me?
Matthew 712 Therefore, whatever you want men
to do to you, do also to them, for this is the
Law and the Prophets.
The Golden
Rule
19
What Jesus is saying in Matthew 712 is
1. Do you want people to love you? Love them! 2.
Do you want people to treat you with respect?
Treat them with respect! 3. Do you want to
receive? Give away? 4. Do want to have love? Give
love! 5. Do you want to have mercy? Use mercy!
What can love for others do for you?
20
It can take you to heaven!
Luke 1818-30 Now a certain ruler asked Him,
saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit
eternal life? 19So Jesus said to him, Why do
you call Me good? No one is good but One, that
is, God. 20You know the commandments Do not
commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not
steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your
father and your mother. 21And he said, All
these things I have kept from my youth. 22So
when Jesus heard these things, He said to him,
You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have
and distribute to the poor, and you will have
treasure in heaven and come, follow Me. 23But
when he heard this, he became very sorrowful, for
he was very rich.24And when Jesus saw that he
became very sorrowful, He said, How hard it is
for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of
God! 25For it is easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a rich man
to enter the kingdom of God. 26And those who
heard it said, Who then can be saved? 27But He
said, The things which are impossible with men
are possible with God. 28Then Peter said, See,
we have left all and followed You. 29So He said
to them, Assuredly, I say to you, there is no
one who has left house or parents or brothers or
wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of
God, 30who shall not receive many times more in
this present time, and in the age to come eternal
life.
21
Do you have the Holy Spirit in you?
Do you have any fruit from Him in your life?
Do you love others?
May the Lord bless us all!
