Galatians 5:25

King James Bible

"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit."

Commentary

Paul refers to the new spiritual life believers possess through the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence. This phrase assumes the reality of regeneration—that Christians have been made spiritually alive by God's Spirit, marking a fundamental transformation from spiritual death to life.

Paul uses the imperative to emphasize that possessing spiritual life must translate into Spirit-directed actions, closing the gap between position and practice.
