- L v. 27-29
*Romans 8:1* /“There is… no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.”/

There is a sin leading to death.
I do not say that he should pray about that.
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin leading to death.”/
