Romans 8:12-17 - The Holy Spirit's Ministries

¹² So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to flesh; ¹³ for if ye live according to flesh, ye are about to die; but if, by the Spirit, ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live: ¹⁴ for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵ For ye have not received a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye have received a spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. ¹⁶ The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of God. ¹⁷ And if children, heirs also: heirs of God, and Christ's joint heirs; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
