Romans 8
Rom 8:1 There is
therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who
don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
Rom 8:2 For the law of
the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin
and of death.
Rom 8:3 For what the
law couldn't do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did,
sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he
condemned sin in the flesh;
Rom 8:4 that the
ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the
flesh, but after the Spirit.
Rom 8:5 For those who
live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the
flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the
Spirit.
Rom 8:6 For the mind of
the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;
Rom 8:7 because the
mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to
God's law, neither indeed can it be.
Rom 8:8 Those who are
in the flesh can't please God.
Rom 8:9 But you are not
in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God
dwells in you. But if any man doesn't have the Spirit of Christ, he
is not his.
Rom 8:10 If Christ is
in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive
because of righteousness.
Rom 8:11 But if the
Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who
raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your
mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Rom 8:12 So then,
brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
Rom 8:13 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.
Rom 8:14 For as many as
are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.
Rom 8:15 For you didn't
receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the
Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!"
Rom 8:16 The Spirit
himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;
Rom 8:17 and if
children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ; if
indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.
Rom 8:18 For I consider
that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be
compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us.
Rom 8:19 For the
creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be
revealed.
Rom 8:20 For the
creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of
him who subjected it, in hope
Rom 8:21 that the
creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into
the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
Rom 8:22 For we know
that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until
now.
Rom 8:23 Not only so,
but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we
ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the
redemption of our body.
Rom 8:24 For we were
saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for
that which he sees?
Rom 8:25 But if we hope
for that which we don't see, we wait for it with patience.
Rom 8:26 In the same
way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don't know how to
pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us
with groanings which can't be uttered.
Rom 8:27 He who
searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit's mind, because he
makes intercession for the saints according to God.
Rom 8:28 We know that
all things work together for good for those who love God, to those
who are called according to his purpose.
Rom 8:29 For whom he
foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his
Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
Rom 8:30 Whom he
predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also
justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified.
Rom 8:31 What then
shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against
us?
Rom 8:32 He who didn't
spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not
also with him freely give us all things?
Rom 8:33 Who could
bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies.
Rom 8:34 Who is he who
condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the
dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession
for us.
Rom 8:35 Who shall
separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or
persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Rom 8:36 Even as it is
written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were
accounted as sheep for the slaughter."
Rom 8:37 No, in all
these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.
Rom 8:38 For I am
persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor
principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
Rom 8:39 nor height,
nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us
from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
