Romans 8:1–8
8 Therefore, there is now no condemnationg for those who are in Christ Jesus,h 2 because through Christ Jesusi the law of the Spirit who gives lifej has set youa freek from the law of sinl and death. 3 For what the law was powerlessm to do because it was weakened by the flesh,b n God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesho to be a sin offering.c p And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirementq of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.r
5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires;s but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.t 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death,u but the mind governed by the Spirit is lifev and peace. 7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God;w it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8 Those who are in the realm of the fleshx cannot please God.
