Romans 8:7-15

⁷because the mindset of the flesh represents enmity against God, since it does not submit to God's law, nor indeed can it.

⁸So, those who are ‘in flesh’ cannot please God.

⁹You, however, are not ‘in flesh’ but ‘in Spirit’, if indeed God's Spirit dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

¹⁰But if Christ is in you, the body is dead through sin, but the Spirit is life through righteousness.

¹¹And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then He who raised the Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of His Spirit who dwells in you.

¹²So then, brothers, we have no obligation to the flesh, to live according to it;

¹³because if you live according to the flesh, you are about to die; but if you put to death the practices of the body, by the Spirit, you will live.

¹⁴Because as many as are led by God's Spirit, these are God's sons

¹⁵—you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fear all over again, but you did receive the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father!”
