Romans:8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus ,
who walk not after the flesh ,
but after the Spirit . (
o .
pneuma )
*
For the law of the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death .
*
For what the law could not do ,
in that it was weak through the flesh ,
God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh ,
and for sin ,
condemned sin in the flesh :
*
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us ,
who walk not after the flesh ,
but after the Spirit . (
o .
pneuma )
*
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh ;
but they that are after the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
the things of the Spirit . (
o .
pneuma )
*
In order to be carnally minded is death ;
but to be spiritually (
o .
pneuma )
minded is life and peace .
*
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God :
for it is not subject to the law of God ,
neither indeed can be .
*
So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God .
*
But all of you are not in the flesh ,
but in the Spirit , (
o .
pneuma )
if so be that the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of God dwell in you .
Now if any man have not the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of Christ ,
he is none of his .
*
And if Christ be in you ,
the body is dead because of sin ;
but the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
is life because of righteousness .
*
But if the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you ,
he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also retore life in your mortal bodies by his Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
that dwells in you .
*
Therefore ,
brethren ,
we are debtors ,
not to the flesh ,
to live after the flesh .
*
For if all of you live after the flesh ,
all of you shall die :
but if all of you through the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
do mortify the deeds of the body ,
all of you shall live .
*
For as many as are led by the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of God ,
they are the sons of God .
*
For all of you have not received the spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of bondage again to fear ;
but all of you have received the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
of adoption ,
whereby we cry ,
Abba ,
Father .
*
The Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
itself bears witness with our spirit , (
o .
pneuma )
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 earn expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God .
*
For the creature was made subject to vanity ,
not willingly ,
but by reason of him who has 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 groans and labors in pain together until now .
*
And not only they ,
but ourselves also ,
which have the first-fruits of the Spirit , (
o .
pneuma )
even we ourselves groan within ourselves ,
waiting for the adoption ,
to know ,
the redemption of our body .
*
For we are saved by hope :
but hope that is seen is not hope :
for what a man sees ,
why does he yet hope for ?
*
But if we hope for that we see not ,
then do we with patience wait for it .
*
Likewise the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
also helps our infirmities :
for we know not what we should pray for as we ought :
but the Spirit (
o .
pneuma )
itself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered .
*
And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit , (
o .
pneuma )
because he makes 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 justifies .
*
Who is he that condemns ?
It is Christ that died ,
yea rather ,
that has risen again ,
who is even at the right hand of God ,
who also makes intercession for us .
*
Who shall separate us from the love (
o .
agape )
of Christ ?
shall tribulation ,
or distress ,
or persecution ,
or famine ,
or nakedness ,
or peril ,
or sword ?
*
As it is written ,
For your sake we are killed all the day long ;
we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter .
*
Nay ,
in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us .
*
For I am persuaded ,
that neither death ,
nor life ,
nor angels ,
nor principalities ,
nor powers ,
nor things present ,
nor things to come ,
*
Nor height ,
nor depth ,
nor any other creature ,
shall be able to separate us from the love (
o .
agape )
of God ,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord .
