Gal 5:16

5:16 walk by the Spirit. The Holy Spirit’s dwelling within the believer is a sign that the believer is part of God’s people and an heir of the covenant promises given to Abraham (3:14; 4:6; 5:5). The Spirit’s presence is also a sign that in the final day God will declare the believer righteous (5:5; 2 Cor. 1:22; 5:5).
