Galatians 6:7-8 Part 2 of 2

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. 

Whoever sows to please their flesh 
Galatians 5:24  Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 
Romans 7:5  For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death. 
Romans 7:18  For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
Romans 8:5-6  Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.

from the flesh will reap destruction 
Job 4:8  "As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it."
Hosea 8:7  "They sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. The stalk has no head; it will produce no flour. Were it to yield grain, foreigners would swallow it up." 
Romans 6:23  For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life 
James 3:18  Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
