are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,
idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath,

kingdom of God. |

So then, my beloved
brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for
the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God. |
