Romans 8:13

⁸For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

¹¹Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

⁵Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. ⁶For these things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience. ⁷You also once walked in those, when you lived in them, ⁸but now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.

²⁷but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.

¹²instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;

²⁴Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

²²that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit,

²²Seeing you have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere brotherly affection, love one another from the heart fervently,

⁴that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. ⁵For 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. ⁶For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;

⁵For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.
