Book of Romans. Sept 24, 2025 Romans 7 NKJ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. 14

For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. —15

If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. —-16.

But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. —-17

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. —-18

For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. —19

Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.—20

I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. —-21

For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 22

But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. —-23

O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? —-24

I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.—-25 Romans 8 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. —1

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Note ��️ Wherever the Spirit of God is moving… There is freedom Freedom from… all forms of sin Oppression, depression Sickness and disease Redeemed ( Salvation ) = means, but Jesus purchased our freedom… with his blood. Gal 3:13-14 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), —-13 that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Notice — That faith is involved in us, enjoying the freedom that Jesus Christ purchased Knowing the truth John 8:31-32 …, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. —31 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”—-32 Note ��️ So God wants all of us to enjoy… And live in freedom. Freedom from the curse oppression , Depression of your mind Sickness and disease Poverty and insufficiency The word of God… Produces freedom in our lives. James 1:25 But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it. NKJ says ….and continues in it….. To continue = remain, abide… Live in the truth = not just a glance = Not just casually read it… And then forget what it says Note ��️ So Romans chapter 8… Speaks about freedom… from sins dominion… Satan’s dominion

Speaks about living in freedom… In your heart… In your mind… In your body This means old habits will not dominate you Harmful imaginations will not dominate you and control your life Failures of the past will not dominate you Circumstances of the present will not dominate you.

Rom 8 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. amp translation …the law of our new being …. Note The way we are going to experience and enjoy freedom… Is learning to yield to the life of God that is in our recreated spirit. The reason it is called the law of the Spirit of life… A spiritual law works for anybody that is Born Again… Anywhere and all the time When you were born again… You passed from death into life Same resurrection life that came into Jesus… Entered into you when you receive Jesus Resurrection life = eternal life, Everlasting life = The law of the spirit of life = Zoe life ( same life that is in God ) You have spiritual life from God in your spirit… It’s called being born again. And that life produces freedom. This new life… Only comes through Jesus Christ All the religions of the world give us lessons But only Jesus Christ and the cross gives us eternal life Jesus Christ came to give us eternal life John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. It is that life… That came into your spirit when you were born again… That makes you free from the dominion darkness in all of its forms Eternal life is what came into your spirit when you were born again Eternal life is not what you get when you die Eternal life… Is the life of nature of God, imparted into your spirit at the new birth This was the number one goal in God‘s plan of salvation Putting his life into us The devil cannot dominate anyone who has passed from death… Into life

The only way the devil to dominate… Is to obscure the cross… Keep someone away from truth Because once you see who you are in Christ… And what happened to you in the new birth… You will walk in freedom. In Romans chapter 8… The word spirit is used 20 times So now we will look at how to walk in freedom Walk in the spirit… let your inner man… Dominate the outward man. Remember… I am a spirit I have a soul I live in a physical body Romans 8 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, —-3 amp translation For God has done what the Law could not do, [its power] being weakened by the flesh [the entire nature of man without the Holy Spirit]. Sending His own Son in the guise of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, [God] condemned sin in the flesh [subdued, overcame, deprived it of its power over all who accept that sacrifice] Romans 8 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. —4

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. —-5

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. —-6

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. —-7 The Solution Col 3:1-2 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. —1 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.——2 Rom 12:2

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
