Book of Common Prayer
This Does Mean That There Is Now No Condemnation For Those In Christ Jesus
8 Therefore[a], there is now no condemnation for the ones in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law[b] of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus set you[c] free from the law of sin and death!
For God Did What The Law Could Not Do, For Those Walking In The Spirit
3 For the thing impossible[d] for the Law, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did. Having sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for[e] sin, He condemned sin in the flesh[f], 4 in order that the requirement[g] of the Law might be fulfilled in us, the ones walking not in-accordance-with[h] the flesh, but in accordance with the Spirit.
For The Way of The Flesh Is Death. But You Are Not In The Flesh, But In The Spirit
5 For the ones being[i] in accordance with the flesh are thinking[j] the things of [k] the flesh, but the ones being in accordance with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For the way-of-thinking of the flesh is death, but the way-of-thinking of the Spirit is life and peace. 7 Because the way-of-thinking of the flesh is hostility toward God; for it is not subject[l] to the Law of God, for it is not even able. 8 And the ones being in the flesh are not able to please God. 9 But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit— since[m] the Spirit of God is dwelling in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, this one is not of [n] Him.
And The Spirit Is True Life In Us Now, And Will Give Life To Our Mortal Bodies
10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life[o] because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of the One having raised Jesus from the dead is dwelling in you, the One having raised Christ from the dead will also give-life-to your mortal bodies through His Spirit dwelling in you.
27 Do not be working for the food which is perishing, but for the food which is remaining to[a] eternal life— which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father certified[b] this One”.
The Work God Requires of You Is To Believe In The One Sent Forth By God
28 So they said to Him, “What may we be doing in order that we may be working the works of God?” 29 Jesus responded and said to them, “This is the work of God: that you be believing in the One Whom that One sent-forth”.
My Father Is Giving You The True Bread From Heaven, Which Came To Give Life
30 So they said to Him, “What then do You do as a sign, in order that we may see it and believe You? What thing do you work? 31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, just as it has been written [in Ps 78:24]: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat’”. 32 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, Moses has not given you the bread from heaven, but My Father is giving you the true Bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is the One coming[c] down from heaven and giving life to the world”.
I Am The Bread of Life Come From Heaven. He Who Believes In Me Has Eternal Life
34 So they said to Him, “Master, give us this bread always”. 35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. The one coming to Me will never hunger, and the one believing in Me will never ever[d] thirst. 36 But I said to you that you have indeed seen Me[e], and you are not believing. 37 All that the Father gives to Me will come to Me, and I will never[f] throw outside the one coming to Me. 38 Because I have come down from heaven not in order that I may be doing My will, but the will of the One having sent Me. 39 And this is the will of the One having sent Me: that as to all that He has given to Me, I will not lose anything from it, but I will raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of My Father: that everyone seeing the Son and believing in Him may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day”.
