Romans 8:4-12 World English Bible (WEB)

4. that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

5. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

6. For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;

7. because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.

8. Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.

9. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

10. If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

11. But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

12. So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
