5, 6, 7, and 8 is a super study on mind of the Christian faith.
Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
We are made righteous in Jesus Christ.
Romans 6:17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
How to be righteous and walk in righteousness. Very cool.
Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
Paul's carnal man, his old man, his soul under sin(imperfection).
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Paul's new birth spiritual man, the new creation, righteous(perfection).
This is one of those commentaries where EVERY WORD just expounds on the truth of the Gospel. We often think that when Jesus prayed in the Garden it was the physical death He was thinking about...but can you imagine the sinless Son of God taking on the sin of the ENTIRE WORLD? How humbling to consider that sacrifice and love...He became sin FOR US. Romans is so powerful and down to earth. I love the chapters that SovereignSon posted. How anyone could not accept what Jesus did on the cross is beyond me. How powerful is that one act of love...
"As the believer's substitute, He paid the price for our sins and rendered us forgiven."
Thank you for posting..."Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might..."
But isn't it lovely how, some if not the majority, will rub the shit of sin in somebodies face, at any opportunity possible? Especially when surrounded by a friend? Lovely.
And why do women in church, feel so inclined to share everyone elses sins amongst the church, even if that person has confessed and has repented?
Love Romans 6.
