Unlike those in the flesh, you are in the Spirit if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to God.

After rejoicing in his own salvation and freedom from “this body of death” (7:24) through Christ, Paul is calling on the Roman Christians to remember their own calling and the triumph they share in Christ (vss 1-2). He implores them to “live according to the Spirit” (vs 5).
