Romans 8
The passage, as the book quotes it
“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”
“For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.”
“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.”
“do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit”
