AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 8:9 ¶ However, you are not [living] in the flesh [controlled by the sinful nature] but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God lives in you [directing and guiding you]. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him [and is not a child of God]. [Rom 8:14] |
Subject: filled Holy Spirit, or to walk in spirit |
Bible Note: Hi Ray, (1 John 4:2 KJV) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: The "Spirit of God" in the above is the Holy Spirit. reference: (1 Corinthians 12:3 KJV) Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Ray, concerning Rom 8:15, I do not agree in the NASB using "a spirit of adoption" instead of "the Spirit of adoption". Because the agent that brought us into this family is the Holy Spirit; and this very Spirit continues to witness to us the grace in which we stand, by enabling us to call God your Father, with the utmost child-like confidence and affection. terrib |
