Better Things for You

⁹ But, ^(A)beloved, we are convinced of better things regarding you, and things that ^[a]accompany salvation, even though we are speaking in this way.

¹⁰ For we are His workmanship, ^(A)created in ^(B)Christ Jesus for ^(C)good works, which God ^(D)prepared beforehand so that we would ^(E)walk in them.

¹⁹ Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: ^(A)sexual immorality, impurity, indecent behavior, ²⁰ idolatry, ^(B)witchcraft, hostilities, ^(C)strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, ^(D)selfish ambition, dissensions, ^(E)factions, ²¹ envy, ^(F)drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not ^(G)inherit the kingdom of God. ²² But ^(H)the fruit of the Spirit is ^(I)love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness, ^(J)self-control; against such things ^(K)there is no law.
