⁴that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who ^gdo not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. ⁵For ^hthose who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, ⁱthe things of the Spirit. ⁶For ^jto be ²carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. ⁷Because ^kthe ³carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, ^lnor indeed can be. ⁸So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

⁹But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. ¹⁰And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. ¹¹But if the Spirit of ^mHim who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, ⁿHe who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies ⁴through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Sonship Through the Spirit

¹²^oTherefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. ¹³For ^pif you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you ^qput to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
