1. S1. SituationituationThe epistle to the Galatians shows Paul in conflict with other missionaries. Jewish-Christians from Palestine had visited the
congregations of the Galatians after Paul's visit there and taught that Paul's Gospel was incomplete. They persuaded some of the
Galatians that salvation required observance of the Torah laws, including circumcision. Paul writes to rebuke and to persuade the Galatians
in this letter.

Galatians 5: 16-26
16 So I say, live by the Spirit,
and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17 For the sinful nature desires
what is contrary to the Spirit,
and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature.
They are in conflict with each other,
so that you do not do what you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit,
you are not under law.

19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious:
sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft;
hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage,
selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21and envy;
drunkenness, orgies, and the like.
I warn you, as I did before,
that those who live like this
will not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control.
Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus
have crucified the sinful nature
with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit,
let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited,
provoking and envying each other.
