Romans 8:13

Set Free From The Law Of Sin And Death

¹² Therefore, brethren, it is not to our lower natures that we are under obligation that we should live by their rule. ¹³ For if you so live, death is near; but if, through being under the sway of the spirit, you are putting your old bodily habits to death, you will live. ¹⁴ For those who are led by God's Spirit are, all of them, God's sons.
