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.

How often that is the case! Ye would be perfect, but "ye cannot do the things that ye would." We would, if possible, escape from every evil thought; we would not even hear of anything sinful, if we could help it.
