What does the Bible say about the works of the flesh?

Answered in 1 source

The works of the flesh are obvious and lead to not inheriting the kingdom of God.

Galatians 5:19-21 lists the works of the flesh, which include adultery, fornication, idolatry, and more. These sinful actions are manifestations of our fallen nature and testify to our inability to please God through our own works. In fact, Paul warns that those who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God, emphasizing the need for a transformative work of the Spirit in our lives to escape the judgment for our sins.
