Gal.5:25 if we live by the Sprit, let us also walk by the Spirit
Eph. 3:11 according to the eternal purpose which He made in Christ Jesus our Lord.
In Galatians 5:16 Paul tells us to walk by the Spirit. The Christian walk is absolutely by the Spirit, not by the flesh. According to the context of chapter five, the Spirit in 5:16 must be the Holy Spirit, who dwells in our regenerated spirit and mingles with it. To walk by the Spirit is to have our walk regulated by the Holy Spirit within our spirit. This is contrasted with our walk being regulated by the law in our flesh.
It is not possible to separate our spirit from the Spirit, for the two spirits have been mingled and have become one spirit. Paul’s word in 1 Corinthians 6:17 … says that he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit. Since our spirit is mingled with the spirit, we nee to learn to have our daily life in the Spirit. We can never overemphasize the importance of having our daily walk in our spirit.

I don't know, but I think he wanted us all to be able to write a question that makes sense. This one doesn't.
