Romans 8:6-8

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁶ To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit^[a] is life and peace. ⁷ For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law—indeed it cannot, ⁸ and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
