: I've been really into 'Galatians' lately... especially toward the end...
: "...ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another..."
: "...walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would."
: "And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts."
: "If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit."
: "Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another."
: "...if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted."
: "Bear ye one another's burdens..."
How about the book of Galatians on tape with Dry Bone Valley Music in the background.
: "...if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself."
: "...whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap..."
: "...let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."
: finally, in his closing, Paul says...
: "But got forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world."

: Gal 2:19 - :20
: "For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
