5 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.

28 Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

1 We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away.

12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!

16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?

23 But the man who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.

4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.

13 For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live,

26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

18 I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.

6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.

10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

17 Why, O LORD, do you make us wander from your ways and harden our hearts so we do not revere you? Return for the sake of your servants, the tribes that are your inheritance.

14 We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin.

3 For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man,

18 I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.

15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.

9 In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.

24 A man’s steps are directed by the LORD. How then can anyone understand his own way?

5 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.

13 for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.

16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?

5 Through him and for his name’s sake, we received grace and apostleship to call people from among all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.

16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.”

16 Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?

31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
