¹⁰but if Christ be in you, the body is dead on account of sin, but the Spirit life on account of righteousness. ¹¹But if the Spirit of him that has raised up Jesus from among the dead dwell in you, he that has raised up Christ from among the dead shall quicken your mortal bodies also on account of his Spirit which dwells in you. ¹²So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to flesh; ¹³for if ye live according to flesh, ye are about to die; but if, by the Spirit, ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live: ¹⁴for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵For ye have not received a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye have received a spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of God.

¹⁷And if children, heirs also: heirs of God, and Christ’s joint heirs; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him. ¹⁸For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the coming glory to be revealed to us.

Read in Logos

Romans 8:15: For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”
