Romans 8:5

Context
8:5 For those who live according to the flesh have their outlook shaped by 1  the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit have their outlook shaped by the things of the Spirit.

Romans 8:9

Context
8:9 You, however, are not in 2  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.

1 tn Grk “think on” or “are intent on” (twice in this verse). What is in view here is not primarily preoccupation, however, but worldview. Translations like “set their mind on” could be misunderstood by the typical English reader to refer exclusively to preoccupation.

2 tn Or “are not controlled by the flesh but by the Spirit.”
