People who don’t believe might say you are doing wrong. But lead good lives among them. Then they will see your good deeds. And they will give glory to God on the day he comes to judge.

No one can question the truth. So teach what is true. Then those who oppose you will be ashamed. That’s because they will have nothing bad to say about us.

God may want you to suffer for doing good. That’s better than suffering for doing evil.

God wants you to be made holy. He wants you to stay away from sexual sins.

Give thanks no matter what happens. God wants you to thank him because you believe in Christ Jesus.

But everyone who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man. He builds his house on sand.

As a result, they don’t live the rest of their earthly life for evil human desires. Instead, they live to do what God wants.

Leave your childish ways and you will live. Walk in the way of understanding.”

But these people say evil things against whatever they don’t understand. And the very things they do understand will destroy them. That’s because they are like wild animals that can’t think for themselves. Instead, they do what comes naturally to them.

These people speak evil about things they don’t understand. They are like wild animals who can’t think. Instead, they do what comes naturally to them. They are born only to be caught and destroyed. Just like animals, these people too will die.

Don’t obey them only to please them when they are watching. Do it because you are slaves of Christ. Be sure your heart does what God wants.Serve your masters with all your heart. Work as serving the Lord and not as serving people.

The Lord says,“ My people are foolish. They do not know me. They are children who do not have any sense. They have no understanding at all. They are skilled in doing what is evil. They do not know how to do what is good.”

Honest people see it and are filled with joy. But no one who is evil has anything to say.

They knew God. But they didn’t honor him as God. They didn’t thank him. Their thinking became worthless. Their foolish hearts became dark.

I used to speak evil things against Jesus. I tried to hurt his followers. I really pushed them around. But God showed me mercy anyway. I did those things without knowing any better. I wasn’t a believer.

Job replied,“ You are talking like a foolish woman. We accept good things from God. So we should also accept trouble when he sends it.” In spite of everything, Job didn’t say anything that was sinful.

Five of them were foolish. Five were wise.

You foolish people of Galatia! Who has put you under an evil spell? When I preached, I clearly showed you that Jesus Christ had been nailed to the cross.

At one time we too acted like fools. We didn’t obey God. We were tricked. We were controlled by all kinds of desires and pleasures. We were full of evil. We wanted what belongs to others. People hated us, and we hated one another.

Is that how you thank the Lord? You aren’t wise. You are foolish. Remember, he’s your Father. He’s your Creator. He made you. He formed you.

So poor people have hope. And God shuts the mouths of those who don’t treat others fairly.

Those who are proud can’t stand in front of you. You hate everyone who does what is evil.
