Heirs with Christ
12 So then, brothers, we are debtors,
1not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.
13
For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you
2put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
14
For all who are
3led by the Spirit of God are
4sons of God.
15
For
5you did not receive
6the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of
7adoption as sons, by whom we cry,
8"Abba! Father!"
16
9The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
17
and if children, then
10heirs--heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ,
11provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
