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, the things of the Spirit.

6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace;

7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile towards God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot.

8 And those who are controlled by the flesh cannot please God.

9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to him.
