Romans 8:5-8
New King James Version
5 For (A)those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, (B)the things of the Spirit. 6 For (C)to be [a]carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because (D)the [b]carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, (E)nor indeed can be. 8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

Romans 8:5-8
Amplified Bible
5 For those who are living according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh [which gratify the body], but those who are living according to the Spirit, [set their minds on] the things of the Spirit [His will and purpose]. 6 Now the mind of the flesh is death [both now and forever—because it pursues sin]; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace [the spiritual well-being that comes from walking with God—both now and forever]; 7 the mind of the flesh [with its sinful pursuits] is actively hostile to God. It does not submit itself to God’s law, since it cannot, 8 and those who are in the flesh [living a life that caters to sinful appetites and impulses] cannot please God.
