Romans 8:5-8

5Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit.

6So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.

7For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey God’s laws, and it never will.

8That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God.
