Romans 8:3-9

Romans 8:3-9 CSB

For what the law could not do  since it was weakened by the flesh,  God did. He condemned sin in the flesh by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh  as a sin offering,  , in order that the law’s requirement would be fulfilled  in us who do not walk according to the flesh  but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on the things of the flesh,  but those who live according to the Spirit have their minds set on the things of the Spirit. Now the mindset of the flesh  is death,  but the mindset of the Spirit is life and peace. The mindset of the flesh is hostile  to God because it does not submit to God’s law. Indeed, it is unable to do so. Those who are in the flesh  cannot please God. You, however, are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.  If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,  he does not belong to him.
