“Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,”
The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; — Paul catalogs 'erga tēs sarkos' (works of the flesh), beginning with three sexual transgressions: porneia (sexual immorality, non-marital sexuality), akatharsia (impurity, often ritual or moral uncleanliness), and aselgeia (debauchery, licentious excess), marking the flesh's trajectory toward dissolution.
