Only those who have believed on Jesus Christ have the Spirit of God and are guided in their actions by the Spirit of God.

We are reminded that our standing before God does not rely on ourselves and what we have done but upon the work of God.

We must confront the sin that remains in our lives and seek deliverance

Paul is thankful for the Law because it showed him the depth of his sin.

Christ again shows His power, authority, and compassion as He meets the disciples in the middle of their struggles.

In the Feeding of the 5000, Christ shows His power, His compassion, and that He fulfills the OT prophecies of being the shepherd of the people of God that graciously provides their every need.

Paul shows that the believer is no longer bound to the Law in the same way that he was before salvation by grace.

The fruit of our lives should be our growth in holiness, for we are no longer earning the wages of sin
