You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact (A)the Spirit of God dwells in you. (B)Anyone who does not have (C)the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 If the Spirit of (D)him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus[a] from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies (E)through his Spirit who dwells in you.

Heirs with Christ

12 So then, brothers,[b] we are debtors, (F)not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you (G)put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are (H)led by the Spirit of God are (I)sons[c] of God.

You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh(A) but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.(B) And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,(C) they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you,(D) then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[a] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead(E) is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies(F) because of[b] his Spirit who lives in you.

12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.(G) 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die;(H) but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body,(I) you will live.(J)

14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God(K) are the children of God.(L)
