14
We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.Read from NKJV · A Return to Functional First Century Christianity - Part 3
15
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do.Read from KJV · A Return to Functional First Century Christianity - Part 3

For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death.Read from KJV · The Local Church That God Blesses - Power for Christian Living

For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,Read from KJV · The Local Church That God Blesses - Power for Christian Living
4
so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.Read from KJV · A Return to Functional First Century Christianity - Part 4

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.Read from KJV · The Local Church That God Blesses - Power for Christian Living

The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace,Read from NKJV · A Return to Functional First Century Christianity - Part 4

because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.Read from KJV · The Activity of the Holy Spirit in a Believer's Life
8
Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God.Read from KJV · A Return to Functional First Century Christianity - Part 4

10
But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness.Read from KJV · The Local Church That God Blesses - Power for Christian Living

12
Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.Read from KJV · The Activity of the Holy Spirit in a Believer's Life

We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time.Read from KJV · (The Activity of the Holy Spirit) the Body of Glory

that if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.Read from KJV · How Is Christ Risen?
10
For with your heart you believe and are justified, and with your mouth you confess and are saved.Read from KJV · How Is Christ Risen?
13
for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."Read from KJV · Baptism and Life's Greatest Question
14
How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach?Read from NKJV · The Spirit Filled Believer - Part 3
15
And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"Read from KJV · The Spirit Filled Believer - Part 3
