⁵ And hope^(A) does not put us to shame, because God’s love^(B) has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit,^(C) who has been given to us.

Life Through the Spirit

8 Therefore, there is now no condemnation^(A) for those who are in Christ Jesus,^{(B) 2} because through Christ Jesus^(C) the law of the Spirit who gives life^(D) has set you^[a] free^(E) from the law of sin^(F) and death.

⁸ Those who are in the realm of the flesh^(A) cannot please God.

⁹ You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh^(B) but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.^(C) And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ,^(D) they do not belong to Christ. ¹⁰ But if Christ is in you,^(E) 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^(F) is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies^(G) because of^[b] his Spirit who lives in you.

¹³ And you also were included in Christ^(A) when you heard the message of truth,^(B) the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,^(C) the promised Holy Spirit,^(D)
