Romans 8:6 NLT: “Letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.”
The writer is talking about ETERNAL life and ETERNAL death. Sinful thoughts and actions can only lead to condemnation in hell, eternal death.
Whereas living life God’s way – and believing in his Son Jesus – leads to forgiveness, redemption and eternal life in God’s Kingdom. This is a gift from Heaven that we really don’t deserve. God giving it to us is called grace. We receive it through faith in the Son. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God!” (Ephesians 2:8)
Living life God’s way is the best way!
