The Book of Galatians Part 18 | The Works of The Flesh

• August 12, 2025 • 3 views

The upload opens with praise for redemption and new life in Christ, then introduces a promised examination of the fruit of the Spirit and the works of the flesh. The speaker begins at Galatians 5:16 and presents walking in the Spirit as the response to desires that oppose that walk. The conflict is described as a matter of moral direction and spiritual allegiance. The minister explains that the list of fleshly works is not exhaustive, noting the phrase “and the like,” before concentrating on adultery and fornication. Physical sexual conduct is discussed alongside a spiritual analogy: giving one’s heart and allegiance to other gods or the world. These definitions and judgments are the speaker’s religious teaching, not a classification of people’s worth. The closing appeal asks for consecration of body and mind, rejection of sinful thought patterns and the putting on of purity. A spoken prayer opposes the practices discussed, then the program ends with a blessing and outro. This episode starts a subject it does not exhaust; no later treatment of the other listed works or fruits is inferred.
