Romans 8:6

6 To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

Romans 8:6 In-Context

4 so that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
6 To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.
7 For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law—indeed it cannot,
8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
