For 1what the Lawcould not do, 2weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His ownSon in 3the likeness of sinfulflesh and as an offering for sin, He condemnedsin in the flesh,
4
so that the 4requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who 5do not walkaccording to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5
For those who are according to the fleshset their minds on 6the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, 7the things of the Spirit.
6
8For the mindset on the flesh is 9death, but the mindset on the Spirit is life and peace,
7
because the mindset on the flesh is 10hostiletowardGod; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not evenable to do so,
8
and those who are 11in the fleshcannot*pleaseGod.
9
However, you are not 12in the flesh but in the Spirit, ifindeed the Spirit of God13dwells in you. But 14ifanyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
