Romans 8:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 8:8

6 For ^ato be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

7 Because ^athe carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, ^bnor indeed can be.

8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11 But if the Spirit of ^aHim who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, ^bHe who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies¹ through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Romans 8:8-9

Can you see the way God is looking at you and me? Because we have received that Spirit, we are (to Him) "in the Spirit." We are part of a spiritual Body. We are part of a spiritual government. We are part of a spiritual church.

Romans 8:3-9

Verse 9 is the key. Christ will only dwell in those called now to live as He lives in both the letter and the spirit of the law of God. Those who are set apart, who are holy (as Ted talked about). This is a precious treasure.
