What the law could not do God accomplished by His son and by the Holy Spirit. By the Spirit we are able to overcome the flesh; we must strive to walk in the Spirit and not to let the flesh have dominion over us.
Worth An Introduction
Life in the Spirit means that there is “no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus”. We are a new creation and our old sinful self is passing away.
Unwanted Wants
The inner conflict of unwanted sin, even for the saved it persists. In our will we want to be done with our sinful nature, but as long as we are in this mortal flesh, we cannot get rid of it. Grace however has given us a stay on the punishment of our trespasses of the law.
Upholding Scripture (Law)
God’s law reveals our sin. The law points out sin and our failure to keep it shows us our need for a savior. By this the law is holy in that by it, God shows us how to be justified by faith in Christ.
Weeding Out Legalism
We are no longer bound by the law; we have been freed from the hard yoke of the Old Testament law. We are, however, under the law of love, to love God and to love others. Some may try to drag us back under legalism. But always remember that the Son has made us free. (John 8:36)
