* [There is ] therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus , who do not walk according to the flesh , but according to the Spirit . * For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and of death . * For what [was ] impossible [for ] the law to do in that it was weak through the flesh , God [did ] by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh , and concerning sin , He condemned sin in the flesh , * so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit . * For those who are fleshly set their minds on the things of the flesh , but those [who live ] according to the Spirit , the things of the Spirit . * For the mind set on the flesh is death , but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace . * Because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God ; for it does not submit to the law of God , nor indeed can it . * And those that are in the flesh cannot please God . * But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit , if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you . But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ , he is not His . * But if Christ is in you , the body indeed is dead because of sin , but the Spirit is alive because of righteousness . * But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you , He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit indwelling in you . * Therefore , brothers , we are debtors-not to the flesh , to live according to the flesh . * For if you live according to the flesh you shall die ; but if by [the ] Spirit you put to death the practices of the body , you will live . * For as many as are led by the Spirit of God , these are sons of God . * For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again unto fear , but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out , "Abba , Father ." * The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God . * And if children , then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ , if indeed we suffer together , so that we may also be glorified together . * For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy [to be compared ] with the coming glory to be revealed in us . * For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly awaits the unveiling of the sons of God . * For the creation was subjected to futility , not willingly , but on account of Him who subjected it in hope ; * because even the creation itself shall be freed from the slavery of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God . * For we know that all the creation groans together and labors in birth together until now . * And not only that , but also [we ]ourselves having the firstfruits of the Spirit , even we ourselves groan within ourselves , eagerly waiting adoption , the redemption of our body . * For by this hope we were saved , but hope that is seen is not hope ; for why does one still hope for what he [ ]sees ? * But if we hope for what we do not see , we eagerly await it with endurance . * Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses . For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought , but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings . * But He that searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is , because He intercedes on behalf of the saints according to [the will ] [of ] God .
