Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

(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.

So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you could be joined to another, to the one who was raised from the dead, to bear fruit to God.

Not only this, but we ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, the redemption of our bodies.
