11 Yet God raised Jesus to life! God's Spirit now lives in you, and he will raise you to life by his Spirit.
12 My dear friends, we must not live to satisfy our desires.
13 If you do, you will die. But you will live, if by the help of God's Spirit you say “No” to your desires.
14 Only those people who are led by God's Spirit are his children.
15 God's Spirit doesn't make us slaves who are afraid of him. Instead, we become his children and call him our Father.
16 God's Spirit makes us sure that we are his children.
17 His Spirit lets us know that together with Christ we will be given what God has promised. We will also share in the glory of Christ, because we have suffered with him.
