The Conflict of Serving Two Masters

¹⁴ For we know that the Law is ^(A)spiritual, but I am ^(B)fleshly, ^(C)sold ^[a](D)into bondage to sin.

²⁴ For if you were cut off from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these who are the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree?

³ Among them ^[a]we too all ^(A)previously lived in ^(B)the lusts of our flesh, ^[b]indulging the desires of the flesh and of the ^[c]mind, and were ^(C)by nature ^(D)children of wrath, ^(E)just as the rest.

Made Alive in Christ

2 And ^[a]you ^[b]were ^(A)dead ^[c]in your offenses and sins, ² in which you ^(B)previously walked according to the ^[d]course of ^(C)this world, according to ^(D)the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in ^(E)the ^[e]sons of disobedience. ³ Among them ^[f]we too all ^(F)previously lived in ^(G)the lusts of our flesh, ^[g]indulging the desires of the flesh and of the ^[h]mind, and were ^(H)by nature ^(I)children of wrath, ^(J)just as the rest.
