Series: The Book of Romans

Romans 8:1-11
Today we begin a new series in what has been called by many the greatest chapter of the Bible. –– The chapter proclaims God’s love for us and our security in Christ. This chapter shouts at the top of its lungs what it means to be a Christian, to know Christ, to belong to God.
Today we are going to talk about how believers have a new way to live. – There are really only two ways to live life. When you become a believer in Christ you get a NEW WAY TO LIVE. – And listen... WE NEED A NEW WAY TO LIVE. – The old way, the normal way... the default way of life is BROKEN. – JUST LOOK AROUND.

Rom. 8:1-11- There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. 3 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do.
