The Spirit of Life
Romans 8:1-13
Nick Ford, Lead Pastor
NO CONDEMNATION
(verses 1-4)
- In Christ = no condemnation ever
- In Christ = free forever from the power of sin and death
- God has done this in Christ.
LIFE ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT
(verses 5-11)
Identity
- Your mind is set on the things of the Spirit.
- à Life and peace
- The Holy Spirit dwells in you.
- You have the hope of life.
Our biggest problem: forgetfulness
PUT SIN TO DEATH
(verses 12-13)
- We no longer live according to “the flesh.”
- “The flesh” no longer has any right over us.
- Live according to who you are in Christ—intentionally put sin to death.
