Heirs with Christ
12So then, brothers,5 we are debtors, cnot to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you dput to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14For all who are eled by the Spirit of God are fsons6 of God. 15For gyou did not receive hthe spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of iadoption as sons, by whom we cry, j“Abba! Father!” 16kThe Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and if children, then lheirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, mprovided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
