    5For they that are after the flesh mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

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

    7because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can it be:

    8and they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

    9But ye are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. But if any man hath not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of 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 him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall give life also to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

    12So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh:

    13for if ye live after the flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

    14For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.
