so that the [righteous and just] requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us who do not live our lives in the ways of the flesh [guided by worldliness and our sinful nature], but [live our lives] in the ways of the Spirit [guided by His power].
So that the righteous and just requirement of the Law might be fully met in us who live and move not in the ways of the flesh but in the ways of the Spirit [our lives governed not by the standards and according to the dictates of the flesh, but controlled by the Holy Spirit].
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
in order that the law’s requirement would be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
He did this so that the righteous requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us. Now the way we live is based on the Spirit, not based on selfishness.
so that the just requirement of the Torah might be fulfilled in us who do not run our lives according to what our old nature wants but according to what the Spirit wants.
He did this, so that we would do what the Law commands by obeying the Spirit instead of our own desires.
in order that the righteous requirement of the law should be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to flesh but according to Spirit.
in order that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, the ones walking not in-accordance-with the flesh, but in accordance with the Spirit.
That the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.
He did this so that we could be right just as the law said we must be. Now we don’t live following our sinful selves. We live following the Spirit.
God did this so that we could become right with him. God's Law showed us how to be right with him. And now we can be right with God, if we live with God's Spirit as our guide. We do not do what our weak human thoughts want us to do.
so that the righteous decree of the law would be fully satisfied in us who are not walking according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.

so that the righteous requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not live according to human nature but according to the Spirit.
The Law never succeeded in producing righteousness—the failure was always the weakness of human nature. But God has met this by sending his own Son Jesus Christ to live in that human nature which causes the trouble. And, while Christ was actually taking upon himself the sins of men, God condemned that sinful nature. So that we are able to meet the Law’s requirements, so long as we are living no longer by the dictates of our sinful nature, but in obedience to the promptings of the Spirit.

So now we can obey God’s laws if we follow after the Holy Spirit and no longer obey the old evil nature within us.
God went for the jugular when he sent his own Son. He didn’t deal with the problem as something remote and unimportant. In his Son, Jesus, he personally took on the human condition, entered the disordered mess of struggling humanity in order to set it right once and for all. The law code, weakened as it always was by fractured human nature, could never have done that. The law always ended up being used as a Band-Aid on sin instead of a deep healing of it. And now what the law code asked for but we couldn’t deliver is accomplished as we, instead of redoubling our own efforts, simply embrace what the Spirit is doing in us.

He did this so that we could be the kind of people the law correctly wants us to be. Now we do not live following our sinful selves, but we live following the Spirit.
so that the righteous requirement of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
Jesus does for us everything the holy law requires. The power of sin should no longer control the way we live. The Holy Spirit should control the way we live.

Now we are able to live up to the justice demanded by the law. But that ability has not come from living by our fallen human nature; it has come because we walk according to the movement of the Spirit in our lives.
