AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 8:13 for if you are living according to the [impulses of the] flesh, you are going to die. But if [you are living] by the [power of the Holy] Spirit you are habitually putting to death the sinful deeds of the body, you will [really] live forever. |
Bible Question:
Does this refer to spiritual or physical death? Does this verse refer to christians or non christians? |
Bible Answer: Everyone will die physically, unless the rapture takes place befor their physical body dies.This scripture is saying if a person lives to please his physical body and do what feels good even if God calls it wrong, he will die spiritually.If you live by the Spirit you are living by what God calls right, and on judgment your spirit will never die but live on with God.This verse takes in all people, we all have to come to the place to choose God and eternal life with Him, ornot.Have a good day. Hope this helped. |
