Romans 8 (NMV)
1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law was powerless to do, because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to deal with sin. And so He condemned sin in the flesh,
4 so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
6 Now the mindset of the flesh leads to death, but the mindset of the Spirit leads to life and peace.
7 For the mindset of the flesh is hostile toward God, because it does not submit to God's law, indeed, it cannot.
8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, that person does not belong to Him.
10 But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive because you have been made right with God.
11 And if the Spirit of the One who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, then He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who lives in you.
12 So then, brothers and sisters, we are not obligated 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 put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.
15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father!"
16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God.
17 And if we are children, then we are also heirs, heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us.
19 For the creation eagerly waits in expectation for the revealing of the children of God.
20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of the One who subjected it, in confident expectation
21 that the creation itself will also be set free from its bondage to corruption and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together with labor pains until now.
23 And not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, also groan within ourselves as we eagerly wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.
24 For in this hope [confident expectation that God will fulfill His promise] we were saved. But hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what they already see?
25 But if we wait for what we do not see, we wait for it with endurance.
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with wordless groans.
27 And He who searches hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God's people according to God's will.
28 And we know that for those who love God, all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.
29 For those whom He foreknew, He also appointed in advance to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.
30 And those He appointed in advance He also called; those He called He also made right with Him; and those He made right with Him He also glorified.
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, with Him, graciously give us all things?
33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who makes them right with Him.
34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus is the one who died, but even more, has been raised, and is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Pressure and suffering, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?
36 As it is written: "For Your sake we face death all day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels nor spiritual powers, nor present things nor things to come, nor powers,
39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
