Galatians 5:24

Galatians 5:24 teaches that those who belong to Jesus Christ have made a decisive commitment to turn away from their sinful nature and its selfish desires. Through Christ's death and resurrection, believers are empowered to reject the control of the flesh and live by the Holy Spirit. While the struggle against sin continues, Christians are called to daily deny sinful desires, pursue holiness, and reflect the character of Christ in every area of life.
