THE BELIEVER IS MADE A SON OR DAUGHTER AND HEIR ! "But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the spirit of God dwells in you. The Holy Spirit is the one that comes it to you who are spirit; and re-creates you from the inside out, not the outside in. Now if any man or woman have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Now, the apostle Paul saying, if the anointing and the anointed one be in you, the body is dead because of sin, but you who are spirit has been given life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also give life to your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you. Therefore, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if you live after the flesh, you shall die; but if you through the Spirit do modify (change) the deeds of the body, you shall live." (Romans 8:11-12-13). The King James Bible. Now, the amplified Bible reads, "But if Christ lives in you, [the although] your [natural] body is dead by reason of sin and guilt, the spirit is alive because of [the] righteousness [that He [Jesus] imputes to you]. And if The Spirit of Him [God The Father ]who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you [then] He who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. So then, brothers and sisters, we are debtors, but not to the flesh (the old nature) [we are not obligated to our carnal nature], to live [a life ruled by the standards set up by the dictates] of the flesh. For if you live according to the dictates of] the flesh, you will surely die. But if through the power of the Holy Spirit you are [habitually] putting to death [making extinct, deadening) the [evil] deeds prompted by the body, you shall [really and genuinely live forever. For All Who Are Led by the Spirit of God are sons and daughters of God. For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the spirit of adoption [the spirit producing son ship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father Father ! The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God. (Romans 8:10- through 16). The amplified Bible.
