Book of Common Prayer
Walk By The Spirit And You Will Not Fulfill The Flesh’s Desires Or Be Under The Law
16 And I say— be walking by the Spirit and you will never[a] fulfill[b] the desire of [c] the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires against the Spirit and the Spirit against the flesh. For these are contrary[d] to one another in-order-that you might not be doing these[e] things which you may be wanting. 18 But if you are being led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.
Those Who Practice The Works of The Flesh Will Not Inherit God’s Kingdom
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are sexual-immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostilities, strife, jealousy, rages[f], selfish-interests, dissentions, factions, 21 envy[g], drunkenness, revelries, and the things like these— as to which things I tell you beforehand, just as I said-before, that the ones practicing such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Those In Christ Crucified The Flesh And Bear The Fruit of Living By The Spirit
22 But the fruit of [h] the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 And the ones of [i] Christ Jesus crucified the flesh, with its passions and desires.
Who Do You Say That I Am? Peter Says, You Are The Messiah, The Son of The Living God
13 And Jesus, having come into the regions of Philip’s[a] Caesarea, was asking His disciples, saying, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And the ones said, “Some, John the Baptist. And others, Elijah. And different ones, Jeremiah or one of the prophets”. 15 He says to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 And having responded, Simon Peter said “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”. 17 And having responded, Jesus said to him, “You are blessed, Simon Bar-Jonah[b], because flesh and blood did not reveal it to you, but My Father in the heavens. 18 And I also[c] say to you that you are a rock[d], and upon this bed-rock[e] I will build My church— and the gates[f] of Hades will not prevail-against[g] it. 19 I will give you the keys[h] of the kingdom of the heavens. And whatever you[i] bind[j] on earth will have been bound[k] in the heavens, and whatever you loose on earth will have been loosed in the heavens”. 20 Then He gave-orders to the disciples that they should tell no one that He is the Christ[l].
