The Christ Powered Life
Romans 8:1 - 17
Walk By the Spirit
Futility - Chapter 7:18
'Trying to earn our salvation by works is a pathway to futility'
We are saved by grace.
vs 1,2
We are secure because of what Christ has done.
The Law's weakness - our sinful nature.
vs 3, 4
Therefore Christ was sent
We have been set free from sin and death.
We have freedom in Christ
vs 5
How we live out our lives depends upon how we fill our minds. We need to reject the world.
vs 7
The Flesh breeds hostility with God.
Galatians 5:16 - 25
The fruit of the Spirit
Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control
Paul is not talking about following a moral code. He is talking about listening to the Holy Spirit.
vs 9 - 11
John 11:25
vs 12 - 14
Put to death
Lead b the Spirit
Keep in Step with the Spirit
Walk in the Spirit
Like a dance moving as one with the Spirit
If we can't follow the Spirit - we won't live the life Jesus wants us to.
The Influence of the Spirit helps us live like Jesus, love like Jesus
Loved the Father
Loved the world
Loved the lost
Loves the Church
