Romans Chapter 8 (Index)

001  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

002  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

003  For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

004  That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

005  For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

006  For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

007  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

008  So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

009  But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

010  And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

011  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 dwelleth in you.

012  Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

013  For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

014  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

015  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

016  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

017  And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

018  For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

019  For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

020  For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

021  Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

022  For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

023  And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

024  For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

025  But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

026  Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

027  And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

028  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

029  For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

030  Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

031  What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

032  He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

033  Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

034  Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

035  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

036  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

037  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

038  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

039  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
