Romans 8:1-9 ▼

1 Consequently, there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For, what was impossible under law, wherein it was weak through the flesh. God, sending His Own Son in likeness of sinful flesh, and, respecting sin, condemned sin in the flesh;

4 that the requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

5 For those who are according to the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

6 For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;

7 because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither, indeed, can it be;

8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if, indeed, the Spirit of God is dwelling in you. And, if any one has not the spirit of Christ, he is not His.
