The Life-Giving Spirit

1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation  * for those in  * Christ Jesus,  *,*2 because the law  * of the Spirit of life  * in Christ Jesus has set you  * free from the law  * of sin and death.  *

1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation  * for those in  * Christ Jesus,  *,*2 because 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 could not do  * since it was weakened by the flesh,  * God did. He condemned sin in the flesh by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh  * as a sin offering,  *,*4 in order that the law’s requirement would be fulfilled  * in us who do not walk according to the flesh  * but according to the Spirit.

20 For the creation was subjected  * to futility  *  — not willingly, but because of him who subjected it  *  — in the hope 21 that the creation itself  * will also be set free from the bondage to decay into the glorious freedom of God’s children.

22 But now, since you have been set free from sin and have become enslaved to God,  * you have your fruit, which results in sanctification  *  — and the outcome is eternal life!  *

From Slaves of Sin to Slaves of God

15 What then? Should we sin because we are not under the law but under grace?  * Absolutely not!  *

The Righteousness of God through Faith

21 But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed,  * attested by the Law and the Prophets.  *,*22 The righteousness of God is through faith  * in Jesus Christ  *,* to all who believe,  * since there is no distinction.  *23 For all have sinned  * and fall short of the  * glory of God; 24 they are justified freely by his grace  * through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.  *

17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

12 In him we have boldness and confident access  * through faith in him.  *

and freedom to the prisoners;  *

13 For you were called  * to be free, brothers and sisters; only don’t use this freedom as an opportunity  * for the flesh, but serve one another through love.

Glorifying God in Body and Spirit

12 "Everything is permissible  * for me," but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me," but I will not be mastered by anything.

25 But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom and perseveres in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer who works — this person will be blessed in what he does.  *

19 One who is righteous has many adversities,

but the Lord rescues him from them all.  *

10 You who love the  Lord, hate evil!  *

He protects the lives of his faithful ones;  *

he rescues them from the power of the wicked.  *

9 God of our salvation, help us,  *

for the glory of your name.

Rescue us and atone for our sins,

for your name’s sake.  *

6 God provides homes for those who are deserted.

He leads out the prisoners to prosperity,  *

but the rebellious live in a scorched land.  *

38 Therefore, let it be known to you, brothers and sisters, that through this man forgiveness of sins is being proclaimed to you.  *39 Everyone who believes is justified  * through him from everything that you could not be justified from through the law of Moses.  *

The Vine and the Branches

1 "I am*the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.2 Every branch in me that does not produce fruit he removes,*and he prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit.3 You are already clean*because of the word I have spoken to you.4 Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me.*5 I am the vine;*you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit,*because you can do nothing without me.6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is thrown aside*like a branch and he withers. They gather them, throw them into the fire,*and they are burned.*7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.*8 My Father is glorified*by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be*my disciples.
