Charles Spurgeon Commentary Galatians 5:24-26

"And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof. If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. Let us not become vainglorious, provoking one another, envying one another." — Galatians 5:24-26 (ASV)

And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory,

A very common sin—wishing to shine. Whether we deserve to be honoured or not, still wanting to be the lead horse in the team, and to take the leading place. Let us not be desirous of vain glory.
