Roma 8:9

8:9 You, however, are not in ¹  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.

Roma 8:23

8:23 Not only this, but we ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, ²  groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption, ³  the redemption of our bodies. ⁴ 

Roma 15:27

15:27 For they were pleased to do this, and indeed they are indebted to the Jerusalem saints. ⁵  For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual things, they are obligated also to minister to them in material things.

[8:9]  ¹ tn Or “are not controlled by the flesh but by the Spirit.”

[8:23]  ² tn Or “who have the Spirit as firstfruits.” The genitive πνεύματος (pneumatos) can be understood here as possessive (“the firstfruits belonging to the Spirit”) although it is much more likely that this is a genitive of apposition (“the firstfruits, namely, the Spirit”); cf. TEV, NLT.

[8:23]  ³ tn See the note on “adoption” in v. 15.

[8:23]  ⁴ tn Grk “body.”

[15:27]  ⁵ tn Grk “to them”; the referent (the Jerusalem saints) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
