Romans 8:9

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

World English Bible (WEB)

But{G1161} ye{G5210} are{G2075}{(G5748)} not{G3756} in{G1722} the flesh{G4561}, but{G235} in{G1722} the Spirit{G4151}, if so be{G1512} that the Spirit{G4151} of God{G2316} dwell{G3611}{(G5719)} in{G1722} you{G5213}. Now{G1161} if any man{G1536} have{G2192}{(G5719)} not{G3756} the Spirit{G4151} of Christ{G5547}, he{G3778} is{G2076}{(G5748)} none{G3756} of his{G846}.

Strong's King James

(9) Now you aren't in the flesh rather in ruach-spirit, since יהוה YAHWEH's רוּחַ Ruach-Spirit lives in you. But if anybody doesn't have The רוּחַ Ruach-Spirit of Mashiach, he isn't becoming of Him.

The F.O.G*
[9] You, however, are not controlled by the fallen nature but by the Spirit, since God's Spirit lives within you. And remember—anyone who does not have the Spirit of the Messiah living within them does not belong to Him.[10] But if the Messiah is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
The F.O.G Paraphrase

And ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God doth dwell in you; and if any one hath not the Spirit of Christ—this one is not His;
