How do we transition from living in our flesh to becoming alive in the Holy Spirit?

In this episode, Bill and Scott explore what it means to move from living in the flesh to becoming alive in the Holy Spirit. Through Romans 7 and 8, they reveal why sin management and self-effort leave people stuck and discouraged. The conversation points to trust in the Spirit as the foundation for real hope, freedom, and transformation.

Topics Bill Thrall and Scott Boyd discuss in this episode:

(02:19) How Romans 7 describes the ongoing reality of the Christian life.

(03:03) The power of sin in the flesh as something humans were never created to manage.

(05:00) Why self-effort and discipline can’t overcome the power of the flesh.

(07:35) How people become desperate after exhausting themselves trying to fix themselves.

(08:37) How working on sin will never resolve sin.

(10:30) Why believing Christ is alive within changes how issues are addressed.

(11:22) How grace produces hope.

(17:24) How trusting the Holy Spirit allows Him to put the deeds of the flesh to death.

(19:08) Maturity as defined by God.
