Galatians 6:7-9 New International Version
7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. 8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Proverbs 22:8 New Living Translation
Those who plant injustice will harvest disaster,
and their reign of terror will come to an end.
Job 4:8 New Living Translation
8 My experience shows that those who plant trouble
and cultivate evil will harvest the same.
Hosea 10:12-13 New Living Translation
12 I said, ‘Plant the good seeds of righteousness,
and you will harvest a crop of love.
Plow up the hard ground of your hearts,
for now is the time to seek the Lord,
that he may come and shower righteousness upon you.’
13 “But you have cultivated wickedness
and harvested a thriving crop of sins.
You have eaten the fruit of lies—
trusting in your military might,
believing that great armies
could make your nation safe.
SEEING a harvest and SOWING a harvest are two different things.
Galatians 6:7 New International Version
7 Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
God cannot be mocked – Gr. turn your nose up
Galatians 6:8 New International Version
8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Galatians 5:19-25 New Living Translation
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.
Galatians 6:9 New International Version
9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
