Romans 8:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 [a]But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead, shall also quicken your mortal bodies, by his Spirit that [b]dwelleth in you.
12 [c]Therefore brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh, to live after the flesh:
13 [d]For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye mortify the deeds of the body by the Spirit, ye shall live.

- Romans 8:11 By the virtue and power of it, which showed the same might first in our head, and daily worketh in his members.
- Romans 8:12 An exhortation to oppress the flesh daily more and more by the virtue of the Spirit of regeneration, because (saith he) you are debtors unto God, forsomuch as you have received so many benefits of him.
- Romans 8:13 Another reason of the profit that ensueth: for such as strive and fight valiantly, shall have everlasting life.

12 So then, brothers,[b] we are debtors, (C)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 (D)put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
