*
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 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 did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh ,
on account of sin :
He condemned sin in the flesh ,
*
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 live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh ,
but those who live according to the Spirit ,
the things of the Spirit .
*
For to be carnally minded is death ,
but to be spiritually minded is life and peace .
*
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God ;
for it is not subject to the law of God ,
nor indeed can be .
*
So then ,
those who 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 .
Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ ,
he is not His .
*
And if Christ is in you ,
the body is dead because of sin ,
but the Spirit is life 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 who dwells in you .
*
Therefore ,
brethren ,
we are debtors--not to the flesh ,
to live according to the flesh .
*
For if you live according to the flesh you will die ;
but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds 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 to 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 with Him ,
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 glory which shall be revealed in us .
*
For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God .
*
For the creation was subjected to futility ,
not willingly ,
but because of Him who subjected it in hope ;
*
because the creation itself also will 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 with birth pangs together until now .
*
Not only that ,
but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit ,
even we ourselves groan within ourselves ,
eagerly waiting for the adoption ,
the redemption of our body .
*
For we were saved in this hope ,
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 wait for it with perseverance .
*
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 makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered .
*
Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is ,
because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God .
*
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God ,
to those who are the called according to His purpose .
*
For whom He foreknew ,
He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son ,
that He might be the firstborn among many brethren .
*
Moreover whom He predestined ,
these He also called ;
whom He called ,
these He also justified ;
and whom He justified ,
these He also glorified .
