¹⁶ So I say, live by the Holy Spirit's power. Then you will not do what your sinful nature wants you to do. ¹⁷ The sinful nature does not want what the Spirit delights in. And the Spirit does not want what the sinful nature delights in. The two are at war with each other. That's what makes you do what you don't want to do. ¹⁸ But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the authority of the law. ¹⁹ What the sinful nature does is clear. It enjoys sexual sins, impure acts and wild living.
