For no one will ever be made right with God by obeying the law.

The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger,
so why should I tremble? - The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.
