* But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you , he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you . * Therefore , brethren , we are debtors , not to the flesh , to live after the flesh . * For if ye live after the flesh , ye shall die : but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body , ye shall live . * For as many as are led by the Spirit of God , they are the sons of God . * For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear ; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption , whereby we cry , Abba , Father . * The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit , that we are the children of God : * And if children , then heirs ; heirs of God , and joint-heirs with Christ ; if so be that we suffer with him , that we may be also glorified together . * For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us . * For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God . * For the creature was made subject to vanity , not willingly , but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope , * Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God . * For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now . * And not only they , but ourselves also , which have the firstfruits of the Spirit , even we ourselves groan within ourselves , waiting for the adoption , to wit , the redemption of our body . * For we are saved by hope : but hope that is seen is not hope : for what a man seeth , why doth he yet hope for ? * But if we hope for that we see not , then do we with patience wait for it . * Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities : for we know not what we should pray for as we ought : but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered . * And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit , because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God . * And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God , to them who are the called according to his purpose . * For whom he did foreknow , he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son , that he might be the firstborn among many brethren . * Moreover whom he did predestinate , them he also called : and whom he called , them he also justified : and whom he justified , them he also glorified . * What shall we then say to these things ? If God be for us , who can be against us ? * He that spared not his own Son , but delivered him up for us all , how shall he not with him also freely give us all things ? * Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God 's elect ? It is God that justifieth . * Who is he that condemneth ? It is Christ that died , yea rather , that is risen again , who is even at the right hand of God , who also maketh intercession for us .
