Have you ever ran across this scripture before?
From the start of the chapter it talks about how there is no condemnation for people who are believers. That the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Yeshua, has made us free from the law of sin and death. So the spirit of Life has restored life into us, and it's separated between the flesh. Spirit and flesh are two different things.
It talks about how are flesh is weak, and how the spirit can help us overcome our fleshly thoughts and ways, to have spiritual peace in this earth rather than many sorrows that the world can give us. From greed, pride, lust of the eyes, hatred, sorcery, and these things alike, (Galatians 5:16-26), which all come from the darkness of the world, and now from the light of Christ shined and given to us by God; that which is the spirit which lives in side of us.
So if God be for us, who can be against us?
Is it the devil? No. Is it Satan? No.
The answer is ourselves can be against God. Because of our Flesh and being weak we can be our own enemy of our relationship with God. The Spirit however can help us overcome ourselves, and the world. To be able to have the fruit of the spirit in our lives which is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance.
