Bible verses about "spirit" | Lamsa

¹⁶ For this reason, we do not grow weary; for though our outward man perish, yet the inner man is renewed day by day. ¹⁷ For while the troubles of the present time are little and light, a great and limitless glory for ever and ever is prepared for us. ¹⁸ We do not rejoice in the things which are seen, but in the things which are not seen, for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

²² For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

¹² For the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the point of division between soul and spirit, and between the joints and marrow and bones, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

⁶³ It is the spirit that gives life; the body is of no account; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

¹⁵ For I do not know what I do: and I do not do the thing which I want, but I do the thing which I hate. That is exactly what I do. ¹⁶ So then if I do that which I do not wish to do, I can testify concerning the law that it is good. ¹⁷ Now then it is not I who do it, but sin which dominates me. ¹⁸ Yet I know that it does not fully dominate me, (that is in my flesh) but as far as good is concerned, the choice is easy for me to make, but to do it, that is difficult. ¹⁹ For it is not the good that I wish to do, that I do: but it is the evil that I do not wish to do, that I do. ²⁰ Now if I do that which I do not wish, then it is not I who do it, but the sin which dominates me. ²¹ I find therefore, that the law agrees with my conscience when I wish to do good, but evil is always near, distracting me. ²² For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: ²³ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and it makes me a captive to the law of sin which is in my members. ²⁴ O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from this mortal body?

¹ MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world.

¹³ Hereby we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

¹⁶ This I say then: Lead a spiritual life, and you shall never commit the lust of the flesh.

²⁴ For God is Spirit; and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

¹³ But when the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak from himself, but what he hears that he will speak; and he will make known to you things which are to come in the future.
