在圣灵里的生活

1如今，那些在基督耶稣里的就不定罪了。

2因为赐生命圣灵的律，在基督耶稣里释放了我，使我脱离罪和死的律了。

3律法既因肉体软弱，有所不能行的， 神就差遣自己的儿子，成为罪身的形状，作了赎罪祭，在肉体中定了罪案，

4使律法的义成就在我们这不随从肉体、只随从圣灵的人身上。

5因为，随从肉体的人体贴肉体的事；随从圣灵的人体贴圣灵的事。

6体贴肉体的，就是死；体贴圣灵的，乃是生命、平安。

7原来体贴肉体的，就是与 神为仇；因为不服 神的律法，也是不能服，

8而且属肉体的人不能得 神的喜欢。

9如果 神的灵住在你们心里，你们就不属肉体，乃属圣灵了。人若没有基督的灵，就不是属基督的。

10基督若在你们心里，身体就因罪而死，心灵却因义而活。

11然而，叫耶稣从死里复活者的灵若住在你们心里，那叫基督耶稣从死里复活的，也必借着住在你们心里的圣灵，使你们必死的身体又活过来。

12弟兄们，这样看来，我们并不是欠肉体的债去顺从肉体活着。

13你们若顺从肉体活着，必要死；若靠着圣灵治死身体的恶行，必要活着。

14因为凡被 神的灵引导的，都是 神的儿子。

15你们所受的，不是奴仆的心，仍旧害怕；所受的，乃是儿子的心，因此我们呼叫：「阿爸！父！」

16圣灵与我们的心同证我们是 神的儿女；

17既是儿女，便是后嗣，就是 神的后嗣，和基督同作后嗣。如果我们和他一同受苦，也必和他一同得荣耀。

将来的荣耀

18我想，现在的苦楚若比起将来要显于我们的荣耀就不足介意了。

19受造之物切望等候 神的众子显出来。

20因为受造之物服在虚空之下，不是自己愿意，乃是因那叫他如此的。

21但受造之物仍然指望脱离败坏的辖制，得享神儿女自由的荣耀。

22我们知道，一切受造之物一同叹息，劳苦，直到如今。

23不但如此，就是我们这有圣灵初结果子的，也是自己心里叹息，等候得着儿子的名分，乃是我们的身体得赎。

24我们得救是在乎盼望；只是所见的盼望不是盼望，谁还盼望他所见的呢？

25但我们若盼望那所不见的，就必忍耐等候。

26况且，我们的软弱有圣灵帮助；我们本不晓得当怎样祷告，只是圣灵亲自用说不出来的叹息替我们祷告。

27鉴察人心的，晓得圣灵的意思，因为圣灵照着 神的旨意替圣徒祈求。

28我们晓得万事都互相效力，叫爱 神的人得益处，就是按他旨意被召的人。

29因为他预先所知道的人，就预先定下效法他儿子的模样，使他儿子在许多弟兄中作长子。

30预先所定下的人又召他们来；所召来的人又称他们为义；所称为义的人又叫他们得荣耀。

神的爱

31既是这样，还有什么说的呢？ 神若帮助我们，谁能敌挡我们呢？

32神既不爱惜自己的儿子，为我们众人舍了，岂不也把万物和他一同白白地赐给我们吗？

33谁能控告 神所拣选的人呢？有 神称他们为义了。

34谁能定他们的罪呢？有基督耶稣已经死了，而且从死里复活，现今在 神的右边，也替我们祈求。

35谁能使我们与基督的爱隔绝呢？难道是患难吗？是困苦吗？是逼迫吗？是饥饿吗？是赤身露体吗？是危险吗？是刀剑吗？

36如经上所记：我们为你的缘故终日被杀； 人看我们如将宰的羊。

37然而，靠着爱我们的主，在这一切的事上已经得胜有余了。

38因为我深信无论是死，是生，是天使，是掌权的，是有能的，是现在的事，是将来的事，

39是高处的，是低处的，是别的受造之物，都不能叫我们与 神的爱隔绝；这爱是在我们的主基督耶稣里的。

1There is now therefore no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh.

2For the law of the spirit of life, in Christ Jesus, hath delivered me from the law of sin and of death.

3For 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 of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh;

4That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

5For they that are according to the flesh, mind the things that are of the flesh; but they that are according to the spirit, mind the things that are of the spirit.

6For the wisdom of the flesh is death; but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.

7Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.

8And they who are in the flesh, cannot please God.

9But you 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.

10And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification.

11And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

13For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die: but if by the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the flesh, you shall live.

14For whosoever are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).

16For the Spirit himself giveth testimony to our spirit, that we are the sons of God.

17And if sons, heirs also; heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ: yet so, if we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified with him.

18For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.

19For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God.

20For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope:

21Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.

22For we know that every creature groaneth and travaileth in pain, even till now.

23And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.

24For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?

25But if we hope for that which we see not, we wait for it with patience.

26Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself asketh for us with unspeakable groanings.

27And he that searcheth the hearts, knoweth what the Spirit desireth; because he asketh for the saints according to God.

28And we know that to them that love God, all things work together unto good, to such as, according to his purpose, are called to be saints.

29For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his Son; that he might be the firstborn amongst many brethren.

30And whom he predestinated, them he also called. And whom he called, them he also justified. And whom he justified, them he also glorified.

31What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who is against us?

32He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things?

33Who shall accuse against the elect of God? God that justifieth.

34Who is he that shall condemn? Christ Jesus that died, yea that is risen also again; who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

35Who then shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation? or distress? or famine? or nakedness? or danger? or persecution? or the sword?

36(As it is written: For thy sake we are put to death all the day long. We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.)

37But in all these things we overcome, because of him that hath loved us.

38For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor might,

39Nor 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.
