who also has made us efficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of [the] letter but of [the] Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit makes alive.

It is the Spirit who makes alive; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

Thus also it is written, "The first man Adam [became] a living soul;" the last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.

Restore to me the joy of Your salvation; establish me with Your directing Spirit.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me; He has sent Me to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind;

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and of death.

For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again unto fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."

The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!"

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
