Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was made of the descendants of David according to the flesh;

And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and deity; so that they are without excuse:

What then? are we better than they? No, in no way: for we have before proved both Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin;

Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:

For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

Therefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

Moreover the law entered, that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

That as sin has reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer in it?

Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we should no longer serve sin.

For he that is dead is freed from sin.

For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he lives, he lives unto God.

Likewise reckon you also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

Neither yield your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law, but under grace.

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

But God be thanked, that you were the servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

Being then made free from sin, you became the servants of righteousness.

For when you were the servants of sin, you were free from righteousness.

But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, you have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What shall we say then? is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, you shall not covet.

But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, worked in me all manner of covetousness. For without the law sin was dead.

For I was alive apart from the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.

Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.

For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.

Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.

Now if I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.

But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man sees, why does he yet hope for?

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sarah shall have a son.

As it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.

And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

And he that doubts is condemned if he eats, because he eats not of faith: for whatever is not of faith is sin.
