5For they that are according to the flesh mind the things that are of the flesh: but they that are according to the spirit mind the things that are of the spirit.

6For the wisdom of the flesh is death: but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.

7Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God. For it is not subject to the law of God: neither can it be.

8And they who are in the flesh cannot please God.

9But you are not in the flesh, but the spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

10And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin: but the spirit liveth, because of justification.

11And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ, from the dead shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh to live according to the flesh.

13For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.

14For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear: but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).

16For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit that we are the sons of God.

17And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.
