I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.

Put to death, therefore, the components of your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry.

As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one. There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.” “Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.” “The venom of vipers is on their lips.” “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.” . . .

The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery; idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, and debauchery;

Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time.

God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”

We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

I speak the truth in Christ; I am not lying, as confirmed by my conscience in the Holy Spirit.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.

Whatever you find to do with your hands, do it with all your might, for in Sheol, where you are going, there is no work or planning or knowledge or wisdom.
