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

12 So then, brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if ye live according to the flesh, ye are sure to die; but if by the Spirit ye make an end of the deeds of the body, ye will live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are sons of God. 15 For ye did not receive the spirit of bondage so as to be again in fear; but ye received the spirit of adopted children, whereby we cry, Abba, Father! 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are children of God; 17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and fellowheirs with Christ; if indeed we are suffering with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
