Purpose of Life

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him. In love he destined us for adoption to himself through Jesus Christ, in accord with the favor of his will, for the praise of the glory of his grace that he granted us in the beloved. In Christ we have redemption by his Blood, the forgiveness of transgressions, in accord with the riches of his grace that he lavished upon us. EPH 1:3-7

Body and Spirit

Now the works of the flesh are obvious: immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatreds, rivalry, jealousy, outbursts of fury, acts of selfishness, dissensions, factions, occasions of envy, drinking bouts, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God. In contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also follow the Spirit. GAL 5:19-25

Ciało i Duch :)

Jest zaś rzeczą wiadomą, jakie uczynki rodzą się z ciała: nierząd, nieczystość, wyuzdanie, bałwochwalstwo, czary, nienawiść, spory, zawiść, gniewy, pogoń za zaszczytami, niezgoda, rozłamy, zazdrość, pijaństwo, hulanki i tym podobne. Co do nich zapowiadam wam, jak to już zapowiedziałem: ci, którzy się takich rzeczy dopuszczają, królestwa Bożego nie odziedziczą. Owocem zaś Ducha jest: miłość, radość, pokój, cierpliwość, uprzejmość, dobroć, wierność, łagodność, opanowanie. Przeciw takim cnotom nie ma Prawa. A ci, którzy należą do Chrystusa Jezusa, ukrzyżowali ciało swoje z jego namiętnościami i pożądaniami. Mając życie od Ducha, do Ducha się też stosujmy. Ga 5, 19-25

Heart

The Lord said to him, “Oh you Pharisees! Although you cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish, inside you are filled with plunder and evil. You fools! Did not the maker of the outside also make the inside? But as to what is within, give alms, and behold, everything will be clean for you.” LK 11:39-41
