8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. ⁵  8:2 For the law of the life-giving Spirit ⁶  in Christ Jesus has set you ⁷  free from the law of sin and death. 8:3 For God achieved what the law could not do because ⁸  it was weakened through the flesh. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and concerning sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 8:4 so that the righteous requirement of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
