Since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ...  We have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand...  At the right time Christ died for the ungodly... while we were still sinners...

We know that Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; death no longer has dominion over Him.  For the... life He lives He lives to God...  Consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus...  Present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness...  Present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification...  Now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.  For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Nothing good dwells... in my flesh.  Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! ...I myself serve the law of God with my mind...

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh (but according to the Spirit)...  He condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk... according to the Spirit...  Those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.  ...to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.  You... are... in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you...  If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He... will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
