There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

For I delight in God's law after the inward man,

that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who didn't follow after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith;

but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, didn't arrive at the law of righteousness.

So then, let us follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
