Title: Grace is so Amazing
Text:
Romans 6:6-7 (HCSB)
6 For we know that our old self was crucified with Him in order that sin's dominion over the body may be abolished, so that we may no longer be enslaved to sin,
7 since a person who has died is freed from sin's claims.
Romans 6:11-14 (HCSB)
11 So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires.
13 And do not offer any parts of it to sin as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God, and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness.
14 For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under law but under grace.
Observation:
O, what a blessing to be free from the law, and saved by the grace of God. That is the happy condition of every believer in Jesus.
"Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow".
Elvina M. Hall
Our old man, our Adamic nature died when Jesus died on the cross at Calvary. The Apostle Paul's says me need to consider it as being dead. The debt has been "Paid in Full", we need to cash the check of this promise.
Romans 6:11 (AMP)
11 Even so consider yourselves also dead to sin and your relation to it broken, but alive to God [living in unbroken fellowship with Him] in Christ Jesus.
Therefore, we should live as free people.
John 8:36 (HCSB)
36 Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you really will be free.
Prayer:
Father God, I thank you from the depths of my heart for your amazing grace that you have so richly given to me.
Father God, from a heart filled with gratitude, I say thanks; thank you Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In Jesus name, Amen.
--
Acts 6:4 (KJV)
4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
