Romans 8:1-11
\nLife in the Spirit<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, 03\/23\/2023, let us, together in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in Romans 8:1-11.<\/span><\/p>\n

1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to flesh, but according to Spirit. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

2 For the Law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus set me free from the law of sin and of death. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

3 For the Law being powerless, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and concerning sin, condemned sin in the flesh, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

4 so that the righteous demand of the Law might be fulfilled in us, those not walking according to flesh, but according to Spirit. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

5 For the ones that are according to flesh mind the things of the flesh. And the ones according to Spirit mind the things of the Spirit. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace; <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

7 because the mind of the flesh is enmity towards God; for it is not being subjected to the Law of God, for neither can it be. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

8 And those being in the flesh are not able to please God. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

9 But you are not in flesh, but in Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone has not the Spirit of Christ, this one is not His. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

10 But if Christ is in you, the body indeed is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

11 But if the Spirit of the One having raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the One having raised the Christ from the dead will also make your mortal bodies live through the indwelling of His Spirit in you. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

[Literal Translation of the Holy Bible]<\/span><\/p>\n

Suggested Questions:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Please note that when the term “spirit” is used without a definite article in Greek to refer to God and Christ, it refers to their mindset and should not be capitalized. If it is used to refer to humans, it refers to the human mindset. When used with a definite article, it refers to the essence of either God or humans.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. What is the “law of sin and death” and why is it called that?<\/span><\/p>\n

4. What belongs to the Holy Spirit?<\/span><\/p>\n

5. What does it mean to have a mindset focused on the things of the spirit?<\/span><\/p>\n

6. What is the spirit of God? What is the spirit of Christ?<\/span><\/p>\n

7. How is Christ present among God’s people? Is it similar to the Holy Spirit dwelling within them?<\/span><\/p>\n

8. How are the fleshly bodies of God’s people resurrected?<\/span><\/p>\n

Suggested Applications:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
