and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
-
God, whom I serve in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
-
I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—
-
No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God.
-
And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
-
But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
-
We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.
-
Life Through the Spirit
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
-
because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
-
in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
-
Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.
-
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.
-
You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.
-
But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
-
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
-
For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.
-
For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.
-
The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
-
The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.
-
Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies.
-
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
-
And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

Paul’s Anguish Over Israel
I speak the truth in Christ—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit—
-
as it is written: “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear, to this very day.”
-
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
