THERE is no condemnation therefore to those in Christ Jesus; for the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and death.

that the righteous ordinance of the law may be performed by us who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit. For they who are according to the flesh mind the things of the flesh, but they who are according to the spirit the things of the spirit; for the minding of the flesh is death, but the minding of the Spirit is life and peace. Because the minding of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God; for it can not be. And they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. And if any man has not the spirit of Christ he is not his. But if Christ is in you, the body is dead on account of sin, but the spirit is life on account of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he that raised Christ from the dead shall make alive your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwells in you. Therefore, brothers, we are debtors not to the flesh to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die; but if by the spirit you kill the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God they are sons of God. For you received not the spirit of servitude again to fear, but you received the spirit of adoption, by which we cry; Abba, Father. The Spirit itself is a co-witness with our spirits that we are children of God. And if children, [we are] also heirs, heirs indeed of God and co-heirs with Christ, if we suffer with him that we may also be glorified with him. For I think that the sufferings of the present time are of no account in comparison with the glory to be revealed in us.

For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes. For Moses describes the righteousness of the law, that the man that does these things shall live by them. But the righteousness by faith speaks thus; Say not in your mind, who shall ascend into heaven???hat is, to bring Christ down,??7 or who shall descend into the abyss???hat is, to bring Christ up from the dead. But what does it say? The word is nigh you, in your mouth and in your mind; that is, the word of the faith which we preach. For if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe with your mind that God raised him from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the mind we believe to righteousness, and with the mouth we confess to salvation. For the Scripture says, No one that believes in him shall be ashamed. For there is no difference between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord of all is rich to all that call upon him. For every one that calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

For he that said, You shall not commit adultery, said also, You shall not kill; and if you do not commit adultery, but kill, you are a transgressor of the law. So speak and so do, as being about to be judged by the law of liberty. For he shall have judgment without mercy who shows not mercy; mercy rejoices over judgment. What is the profit, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has not works? Can faith save him? And if a brother or sister is naked, or destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warmed and be filled, but gives them not the necessary supplies for the body, what is the profit? So also faith, if it has not works, is dead, being alone. But some one will say, You have faith, and I have works; show me your faith without works, and I will show you my faith by works. You believe that there is one God? You do well; demons also believe and tremble. But will you know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar? You see that faith cooperated with his works, and by works was faith made perfect, and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, And Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him a righteousness, and he was called God's friend. You see then that a man is justified by works and not by faith only. And in like manner also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she received the messengers and sent them out another way? For as the body without a spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
