Romans 8:9-17 (CWSB)
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Introduction
🔑 Romans 7:24-25 (CWSB)
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. ⬇️
✅wretched (Rom. 7:24)
miserable; suffering from spiritual or emotional misery.
✅We should understand the law of the Spirit of Life here to be the principle upon which the Holy Spirit works.
(Ref Rom 8:2)⬇️
Romans 8:2 (KJV Strong's)
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
JUSTIFICATION*, JUSTIFIED
➡️The act of God in bringing sinners into a new covenant relationship with himself through the forgiveness of sins.
➡️It is a declarative act of God by which he establishes persons as righteous—that is, in right and true relationship to himself.
➡️Romans 5:1
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
➡️The flesh is an attitude or inclination operating in complete rejection of the divine will that requires self-sacrificial submission, choosing rather the free expression of anything and everything that will bring self-gratification
➡️The term ‘condemnation’ does not denote merely a pronouncement of guilt [s. κρίνω 5], but the adjudication of punishment.)
➡️“ condemnation ” ( Romans 5:16 , 18 ; 8:1 ) The Divine judgment against sin.
➡️Call To Action: Accept the Grace of God, Jesus the Christ, he endures the punishment for us that we may be justified by the Father.
