Romans 8:1-30

Romans 8:1-30

[1] There is therefore  now  no  condemnation  to them which are in  Christ  Jesus,  who walk  not  after  the flesh,  but  after  the Spirit.  [2] For  the law  of the Spirit  of life  in  Christ  Jesus  free  from  the law  of sin  and  death.  [3] For  what the law  could not do,  in  that  it was weak  through  the flesh,  God  sending  his own  Son  in  the likeness  of sinful  flesh,  and  for  sin,  condemned  sin  in  the flesh:  [4] That  the righteousness  of the law  might be fulfilled  in  who walk  not  after  the flesh,  but  after  the Spirit.  [5] For  after  the flesh  do mind  the things  of the flesh;  but  they that are after  the Spirit  the things  of the Spirit.  [6] For  carnally  minded  is death;  but  spiritually  minded  is life  and  peace.  [7] Because  the carnal  mind  is enmity  against  God:  for  not  subject  to the law  of God,  neither  indeed  can be.  [8] So then  in  the flesh  cannot  please  God.  [9] But  not  in  the flesh,  but  in  the Spirit,  if so be  that the Spirit  of God  dwell  in  Now  have  not  the Spirit  of Christ,  he  none  of his.  [10] And  if  Christ  be in  the body  is dead  because  of sin;  but  the Spirit  is life  because  of righteousness.  [11] But  if  the Spirit  of him that raised up  Jesus  from  the dead  dwell  in  he that raised up  Christ  from  the dead  also  quicken  mortal  bodies  by  his  Spirit  that dwelleth  in  [12] Therefore,  brethren,  debtors,  not  to the flesh,  to live  after  the flesh.  [13] For  if  ye live  after  the flesh,  ye shall  die:  but  if  through the Spirit  do mortify  the deeds  of the body,  ye shall live.  [14] For  as many as  are led  by the Spirit  of God,  they  the sons  of God.  [15] For  not  received  the spirit  of bondage  again  to  fear;  but  ye have received  the Spirit  of adoption,  whereby  we cry,  Abba,  Father.  [16] The Spirit  itself  beareth witness  spirit,  that  the children  of God:  [17] And  if  children,  then  heirs;  of God,  and  joint-heirs  with Christ;  if so be  that we suffer with  him, that  also  glorified together.  [18] For  I reckon  that  the sufferings  of this present  time  are not  worthy  to be compared with  the glory  which shall  be revealed  in  [19] For  the earnest expectation  of the creature  waiteth  for the manifestation  of the sons  of God.  [20] For  the creature  was made subject  to vanity,  not  willingly,  but  by reason  of him who hath subjected  the same in  hope,  [21] Because  the creature  itself  also  shall be delivered  from  the bondage  of corruption  into  the glorious  liberty  of the children  of God.  [22] For  we know  that  the whole  creation  groaneth  and  travaileth in pain together  until  now.  [23] And  not  only  they, but  ourselves  also,  which have  the firstfruits  of the Spirit,  even  ourselves  groan  within  ourselves,  waiting  for the adoption,  to wit, the redemption  body.  [24] For  we are saved  by hope:  but  hope  that is seen  not  hope:  for  what  seeth,  why  hope for?  [25] But  if  we hope  for that  we see  not,  with  patience  wait for  [26] Likewise  the Spirit  also  helpeth  infirmities:  for  we know  not  what  we should pray for  as  we ought:  but  the Spirit  itself  maketh intercession  with groanings  which cannot be uttered.  [27] And  he that searcheth  the hearts  knoweth  what  is the mind  of the Spirit,  because  he maketh intercession  for  the saints  according  to the will of God.  [28] And  we know  that all things  work together  for  good  to them that  love  God,  the called  according  to his purpose.  [29] For  whom  he did foreknow,  also  did predestinate  to be conformed  to the image  of his  Son,  that  he  the firstborn  among  many  brethren.  [30] Moreover  whom  he did predestinate,  also  called:  and  whom  he called,  also  justified:  and  whom  he justified,  also  glorified.
