Romans 5-7 Week 5 – Dead to the Law

Dave Riddle – 2/11/2018

Key passage: Romans 7:1-6

Reminder:

  • Romans 6:14
    • Not under the law…

      • A simple and straightforward truism:

      • Truism = statement of truth
      • Romans 7:1
        • Law is only binding for the living.

          • A real-life analogy: marriage

          • Romans 7:2-3
            • An analogy, not a teaching on divorce or marriage.

              • Relevance for the believer :

              • Set free from the law
                • Romans 7:4
                  • thanatoō (Greek: θανατόω) – put to death, by death to be liberated from the bond of anything, literally to be made dead in relation to the law.
                    • Attached to Jesus
                      • Romans 7:4
                        • Bearing Spiritual Fruit
                          • Romans 7:5
                          • Ephesians 2:8-10
                            • By grace through faith, not by works, but created to do good works.
                            • Total transformation!
                              • We’ve been made new so now we produce a different kind of fruit.
                                • Serving in the Spirit
                                  • Romans 7:6
                                  • A necessary byproduct of our salvation.
                                  • douleuō (Greek: δουλεύω) – to be a slave, serve, do service
                                    • ...more
