16. Life in the Spirit (Romans 8:1-17)
Romans chapter 7 was Paul’s autobiographical description of what it is like to live the Christian life in the strength of the flesh or self-effort. It is impossible! Paul’s agonizing conclusion is that his own strength was insufficient to conquer his fleshly tendency to sin.
In exasperation, he cried out in verse 24 of Chapter 7, “What a wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?” His answer comes immediately; God will deliver him through Jesus Christ!
In chapter 8 we are introduced to the incredible power we have in the Holy Spirit who enables us to live a life that is pleasing and glorifying to God. He is not describing an occasional experience, but what should be the mark of the normal Christian life.
It is worth noting that the Spirit is not mentioned at all in chapter 7 and only once in the opening chapters of Romans. But in chapter eight we discover the Holy Spirit is mentioned 20 times, giving us a very clear indication of the primary emphasis of this text.
Enjoy the rest of the message.
Blessings,
