5For ithey that are after the flesh do jmind kthe things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit lthe things of the Spirit. 6For †to be carnally minded is mdeath; but †to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7Because †the carnal mind is nenmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, oneither indeed can be. 8So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. 9But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, pif so be that qthe Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not qthe Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but rthe Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11But if the Spirit of shim that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, the that raised up Christ from the dead ushall also quicken your mortal bodies ||xby his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, ynot to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13For zif ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do amortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14For as many as bare led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15For cye have not received dthe spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of eadoption, whereby we cry, fAbba, Father. 16gThe Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are hthe children of God: 17And if children, then iheirs; iheirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; kif so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

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!”
