1 John 4:13
4:13 By this
we know that we reside in God
and he in us: in that he has given us of his Spirit.
Romans 8:9-17
8:9 You, however, are not in
the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, this person does not belong to him.
8:10 But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, but
the Spirit is your life
because of righteousness.
8:11 Moreover if the Spirit of the one
who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, the one who raised Christ
from the dead will also make your mortal bodies alive through his Spirit who lives in you.
8:12 So then, brothers and sisters, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh
8:13 (for if you live according to the flesh, you will die), but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live.
8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God.
8:15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery leading again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, “Abba, Father.”
8:16 The Spirit himself bears witness to our spirit that we are God’s children.
8:17 And if children, then heirs (namely, heirs of God and also fellow heirs with Christ) – if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him.
Galatians 4:5-6
4:5 to redeem those who were under the law, so that we may be adopted as sons with full rights.
4:6 And because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, who calls
“
Abba! Father!”
