An audio message on Romans 7
Nothing can alter the fact that Jesus Christ died to sin, and because you are in Him you have also died been buried and raised together with Jesus. “all past tense” There is nothing more you have to do to make it so, just believe that it is so 6:2-3.
The Law is good it teaches what is right and reveals what is sin, it exposes sin for what it is (exceedingly sinful) 7:13 but the Law is powerless to produce righteousness 7:12.
The Law makes sin known and revives the flesh this is the same for every Christian, like Paul we all face the same struggle with sin and soon discover that the law cannot deliver anyone, it is powerless to make us holy.
The battle lies in the mind it is there the victory is won 7:23. We are to bring every thought captive to the obedience of Christ 2 Corinthians 10:1-5. Every temptation every accusing thought has to bend the knee to Gods truth. We are new creations created in Christ Jesus to do good works, don’t fall for the devils tactics he will flee from you as you resist him in the strength God has given you.
MEMORY VERSE
But now we have been released from the law, for we have died with Christ, and we are no longer captive to its power. Now we can really serve God, not in the old way by obeying the letter of the law. But in the new way, by the Spirit. Romans 7:6 N.L.T.
