Consequently nothing is condemnation now to those in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to flesh but according to Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus freed me from the law of sin and of death. For the impotence of the law, in that it was weak because of the flesh, God, having sent his own Son in a form of flesh of sin, and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh, read more.
so that the justice of the law might be fulfilled in us, those who walk not according to flesh, but according to Spirit. For those who are according to flesh think about the things of the flesh, but those according to Spirit the things of the Spirit. For the mentality of the flesh is death, but the mentality of the Spirit is life and peace. Because the mentality of the flesh is enmity against God, for it is not submissive to the law of God, for neither is it able. And those who are in flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in flesh but in Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man does not have the Spirit of Christ, this man is not of him. And if Christ is in you, the body is indeed dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up the Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwells in you. So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh to live according to flesh. For if ye live according to flesh, ye are going to die, but if in spirit ye kill the deeds of the body, ye will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For ye did not receive a spirit of bondage again for fear, but ye received a spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself testifies with our spirit, that we are children of God. And if children, also heirs, heirs indeed of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer jointly, so that we may also be glorified jointly. For I reckon that the sufferings of the present time are not comparable to the glory that is going to be revealed for us.

Brothers, truly my heart's desire and my supplication to God for Israel is for salvation. For I testify to them that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For not understanding the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God. read more.
For Christ is the end of law for righteousness, to every man who believes. For Moses writes in the righteousness from the law, that the man that does them will live in them. But the righteousness from faith says thus: Thou should not say in thy heart, Who will ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down) or, Who will descend into the abyss? (That is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? The word is near thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that is, the word of faith that we preach: that if thou will confess with thy mouth, Lord Jesus, and will believe in thy heart that God raised him from the dead, thou will be saved. For a man believes in the heart for righteousness, and he confesses with the mouth for salvation. For the scripture says, Every man who believes in him will not be shamed. For there is no distinction of a Jew and also of a Greek, for the same Lord is of all men, being rich toward all those who call upon him. For every man, whoever may call upon the name of Lord will be saved.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. And those of the Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and the lusts. read more.

If ye indeed fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well. But if ye respect personages, ye work sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors. For whoever keeps the whole law, and stumbles on one, he has become guilty of all. read more.
For he who said thou shall not commit adultery, also said thou shall not murder. Now if thou will not commit adultery, but murder, thou have become a transgressor of law. So speak ye, and so do ye, as men who are to be judged by a law of liberty. For the judgment is merciless to him who did no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. What is the benefit, my brothers, if some man should say to have faith, but has no works? Can the faith save him?

Thou believe that there is one God, thou do well. The demons also believe, and shudder. But do thou want to know, O vain man, that faith apart from works is dead? Was not Abraham our father made righteous from works, having offered up Isaac his son upon the altar? Thou see that faith was working with his works, and from the works, faith was fully perfected. And the scripture was fulfilled, which says, And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness, and he was called a friend of God. Ye see therefore that from works a man is made righteous, and not from faith only. And likewise also was not Rahab the harlot made righteous from works, having received the agents, and having sent them out another way? For as the body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without the works is dead.
