Therefore, There is Now NO Condemnation for Those Who ARE IN Christ Jesus.

~ “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh, so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.” Romans 8:1-4

Now we are coming to the point in the book of Romans and Paul is teaching us as to who we are IN Christ Jesus, if a person is indeed IN Christ Jesus. And that is a very important distinction to know and understand. NOT everyone is in Christ Jesus. Sure they may say they know Jesus, but do they really know the True Jesus of the word of God? Or did they place faith … Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

I Do Not Understand What I Do

~ “We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do. But what I hate, I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I admit that the law is good. In that case, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.” Romans 7:14,15

God knows us better than we know ourselves. When a person tries to obey the Law, it simply causes more sin in a person’s life. And they will constantly be chasing the sin tiger by the tail. For no one can obey the Law. And that is the point of the law in the first place, in order to show us how utterly sinful we really are.

It’s interesting, how hardly any would be law keeper hypocrite talks about the sin of covetousness, and dismisses even acknowledging that they covet things. Because that is one of the sins that is of the heart. … Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message

Serve God in the Spirit, Not by The Law

~ “Therefore, my brothers, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God. For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death. But now, having died to what bound us, we have been released from the law, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.” Romans 7:5-6

When a person becomes a child of God, through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, we are to serve God in a new way, by His Spirit living in us, guiding us in ALL Truth, and abiding in Him by Faith. And faith is responding properly to Truth. Faith is drawing proper conclusions to the Truth that has been revealed to us. And God has much to reveal to each of us today, because there are so many lies that we all … Click to Read More And Follow Along With The Message
