B. Keep Watch and do Good (6:1-10)

Ver 1. Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.

Ver 2. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

Ver 3. For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

Ver 4. But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.

Ver 5. For each man will bear his own burden.

Ver 6. But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

Ver 7. Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

Ver 8. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

Ver 9. Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.

Ver 10. So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
