Galatians 5:17

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Galatians 5:17. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

You are pulled about by two contrary forces; you are dragged downward by the flesh, and you are drawn upward by the Spirit.
