- 4:41Speaker 2: the Word of God together. All right, So let's go
- 4:48Speaker 2: ahead and crack our bibles. Open to Romans chapter six.
- 4:54Speaker 2: This is getting good. Hey, if you're not on fire
- 4:57Speaker 2: for God after you read this book Romans, man, I
- 5:01Speaker 2: don't know what to tell you. Man. My fire has
- 5:04Speaker 2: been revitalized. I'm just excited about what God has done
- 5:09Speaker 2: for us and what God has done for me individually
- 5:14Speaker 2: and personally. It's amazing. If you miss other episodes, I
- 5:19Speaker 2: encourage you to get all the other chapters leading up
- 5:23Speaker 2: to this chapter, as well as the other ones we're
- 5:27Speaker 2: going to dive into. But there's a couple of things
- 5:30Speaker 2: that really stand out for me. That's really touched me
- 5:32Speaker 2: is the fact that God has imputed righteousness to our account.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Like I can rest, I don't have to fight to
- 5:42Speaker 2: get right with God. I don't have to struggle for righteousness.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Especially as many times as we blow it. As many
- 5:52Speaker 2: times as we struggle in our walk with God. We
- 5:55Speaker 2: can condemn ourselves, we can become unsure about whether or
- 6:00Speaker 2: not we're saved, like there's a lot of stuff that
- 6:03Speaker 2: goes with that. But God has accounted righteousness to our account,
- 6:11Speaker 2: and it's a gift. And now since we have been justified, right,
- 6:18Speaker 2: it's something that has been done. Is that's something that
- 6:20Speaker 2: we got to work for. We are already justified, we
- 6:23Speaker 2: are already righteous, We have a righteous standing with God.
- 6:29Speaker 2: That's to take a lot of pressure off of a
- 6:31Speaker 2: lot of Christians. Amen. And that's only if we understand
- 6:37Speaker 2: the Word, and if we can study the Word together
- 6:41Speaker 2: and really see and understand what the Word is saying.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Now we're gonna look at grace. Now that we have
- 6:49Speaker 2: been justified, we have access to the riches of God's grace.
- 6:55Speaker 2: And by the riches of God's grace, what we mean
- 6:58Speaker 2: is we now have the power to live a life victoriously.
- 7:07Speaker 2: It's by grace, it's through grace. It's the grace of
- 7:11Speaker 2: God that gives us the victory over a life and sin.
- 7:16Speaker 2: And so we're gonna look into that. We're gonna dive
- 7:19Speaker 2: into that here in this chapter, in chapter six. So
- 7:25Speaker 2: let's go before our everything. Father. In prayer, Father God,
- 7:30Speaker 2: we thank you for this time. We thank you for
- 7:32Speaker 2: this opportunity, thank you for this podcast, thank you for
- 7:35Speaker 2: the Word of God, thank you for justifying us. And
- 7:40Speaker 2: thank you, Lord God that now we have the access
- 7:44Speaker 2: to your grace. And we ask for the grace to
- 7:47Speaker 2: record and get through this podcast. We ask for the
- 7:50Speaker 2: grace to walk this out daily. We depend on it,
- 7:56Speaker 2: we rely on it, and we thank you, O God,
- 7:59Speaker 2: forgiving this to us, for hearing us and answering our call.
- 8:04Speaker 2: We ask Father God, that you open up understanding, illuminate
- 8:09Speaker 2: hearts and minds those who will listen to this podcast,
- 8:15Speaker 2: either live or on the replay. Send this podcast to
- 8:20Speaker 2: the top of the search list so everyone can really
- 8:24Speaker 2: understand and hear about your amazing grace. We asked his
- 8:29Speaker 2: Father and Jesus name, Amen and Amen. All right, and
- 8:38Speaker 2: let's dive into it. So verse one it comes straight
- 8:45Speaker 2: out and says, what shall we say? Then? What shall
- 8:58Speaker 2: we say? Then? None? Okay, what shall we say? Then
- 9:06Speaker 2: shall we continue in sin? That grace may abound? Because
- 9:14Speaker 2: Paul just got done speaking about the law, saying that law,
- 9:22Speaker 2: the law, no judge flesh can be justified, and he's
- 9:27Speaker 2: breaking down grace. We are saved by faith through grace.
- 9:32Speaker 2: It is the gift of God. But people can easily
- 9:37Speaker 2: miss understand the teaching about grace, and so Paul anticipates
- 9:44Speaker 2: this just like we see today people still misunderstand grace. Now,
- 9:51Speaker 2: if grace abounds when sin abounds, as we just got
- 9:54Speaker 2: done reading, some might think that continuing in sin will
- 10:01Speaker 2: glorify God. If anyone ever encourages us to sin, that's
- 10:07Speaker 2: a false teacher, a false prophet, It's a demon from him.
- 10:12Speaker 2: If anyone ever makes you comfortable in your sin, if
- 10:16Speaker 2: anyone ever tells you, oh, God understands your heart. Continue,
- 10:21Speaker 2: go ahead and go do that sin. That's a trap.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Strength from the pits of hell. The grace of God
- 10:30Speaker 2: gives us power over sin to overcome it, not a license.
- 10:37Speaker 3: That is.
- 10:39Speaker 2: A cruel joke. Why would Jesus die on the cross
- 10:44Speaker 2: so brutally the way he did if we can just
- 10:48Speaker 2: continue to live a life of sin. That's why we
- 10:51Speaker 2: got to get into our word. That's why we got
- 10:53Speaker 2: to read it and understand it. Now, here's the bottom line.
- 10:58Speaker 2: God is calling out every loophole here, Paul is calling
- 11:04Speaker 2: this out.
- 11:06Speaker 3: Now.
- 11:08Speaker 2: Some people twist grace to a free pass of living
- 11:15Speaker 2: in rebellion. But that's like saying, my doctor is a
- 11:21Speaker 2: good healer. My doctor is a great surgeon. My doctor
- 11:27Speaker 2: is so skillful. You know what. I should just keep
- 11:31Speaker 2: injuring myself so I can keep proving it. Now, God's
- 11:37Speaker 2: grace saves us from sin, not for sin. Let me
- 11:42Speaker 2: say that again. The grace of God saves us from sin,
- 11:48Speaker 2: not for sin. So we come right out the gate.
- 11:53Speaker 2: Now let's go to first two and let's take a Yeah,
- 12:00Speaker 2: let's take verse two real quick. Now, certainly not we
- 12:05Speaker 2: shall how shall we who die to sin? Live any
- 12:10Speaker 2: longer in it. Certainly not. I'm telling you, man, these
- 12:17Speaker 2: are some good chapters, some of my favorite chapters, so comforting.
- 12:22Speaker 2: In the Book of Romans, certainly not. In the Greek
- 12:25Speaker 2: is a strong rejection or God forbid. The believer has
- 12:33Speaker 2: died to sends ruling power. And you say that again,
- 12:39Speaker 2: the believer has died to sinds ruling power. It no
- 12:44Speaker 2: longer dominates the life of the believer. Now, if you're
- 12:53Speaker 2: dead to something, you can't keep living in it. Imagine
- 12:57Speaker 2: trying to keep up your old habits while walking in
- 13:01Speaker 2: new life. It's like wearing a coffin as an outfit.
- 13:06Speaker 2: It just doesn't fit anymore. And this is where God
- 13:10Speaker 2: has done. This is where God has brought us. He's
- 13:13Speaker 2: brought us to a new life. At this point, if
- 13:18Speaker 2: we sin, it's only by choice, because sin has been fired.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Sin is no longer your boss verse three and four.
- 13:34Speaker 2: Do you not know, but as many as were baptized
- 13:39Speaker 2: into Christ Jesus or baptized into his death. And I'm
- 13:44Speaker 2: reading the New King James version, by the way, therefore
- 13:48Speaker 2: we were buried with him through baptism unto death. That
- 13:54Speaker 2: just as Christ was raised from the dead by the
- 14:01Speaker 2: glory of the Father. Even so we also should walk
- 14:06Speaker 2: in newness of life. Amen. All right, let's break it down.
- 14:17Speaker 2: Or do you not know that as many of us
- 14:23Speaker 2: as were baptized unto Christ, Jesus were baptized unto his death.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Therefore we were buried with him through baptism unto death.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Baptism is a symbol of death and of the resurrection.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Going into the water symbolizes burial. Coming out civilizes resurrection.
- 14:52Speaker 2: The resurrection of Christ. We share in his death to
- 14:58Speaker 2: sin and his resurrection onto life. When we give our
- 15:06Speaker 2: lives to Christ, it's not a remodel, it's not a renovation. No.
- 15:20Speaker 2: When we give our lives to Christ, it was a
- 15:24Speaker 2: funeral for the old you and a birth for the
- 15:31Speaker 2: new you. Let me say that again. It is a
- 15:33Speaker 2: funeral service of the old you. Your old life has
- 15:38Speaker 2: been put to death. That's the only remedy that God
- 15:43Speaker 2: gives you for your old life is to kill it.
- 15:50Speaker 2: And it's a new birth for the new you. You
- 15:53Speaker 2: are now born into God's family. We are in God's
- 16:01Speaker 2: family by birth and by adoption. Now, baptism is your
- 16:08Speaker 2: public death certificate, and it's death to sin. It's your
- 16:14Speaker 2: public death certificate to sin and your birth certificate in Christ.
- 16:19Speaker 2: It does two things. Amen, let's really understand this. Let's
- 16:28Speaker 2: get a right relationship when it comes to sin. If
- 16:35Speaker 2: you truly have a relationship with God, then your relationship
- 16:40Speaker 2: with sin has died. That's a good indicator if you
- 16:46Speaker 2: want to test your walk and whether or not you
- 16:50Speaker 2: know God or no Christ, Jesus, look at the sinness
- 16:55Speaker 2: in your life. Is it falling off? Is it fading away?
- 16:59Speaker 2: Are you getting stronger in your walking, your righteousness, your integrity.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Are you receiving and experiencing the grace of God to
- 17:09Speaker 2: give you victory? Or are you just living like you've
- 17:13Speaker 2: always lived and getting worse and worse. All right, let's
- 17:22Speaker 2: go to verse five through seven. For if we have
- 17:28Speaker 2: been united together in the likeness of his death, certainly
- 17:33Speaker 2: we also shall be in the likeness of his resurrection.
- 17:38Speaker 2: Only this that our old man was crucified with him,
- 17:43Speaker 2: that the body of sin might be done away with,
- 17:47Speaker 2: that we should no longer be slaves of sin. For
- 17:53Speaker 2: he who has died has been freed from sin. He
- 17:58Speaker 2: who has died has been free from sin. Our old
- 18:04Speaker 2: man refers to our old sinful nature in Christ, that
- 18:10Speaker 2: old nature was put to death. Allelujah. We need to
- 18:17Speaker 2: be praising God right now. We need to be running
- 18:19Speaker 2: around the church like, look at what God has done
- 18:23Speaker 2: for us. Our old man has been put to death.
- 18:28Speaker 2: We are no longer slaves to sin. It has no
- 18:34Speaker 2: legal claim over us. And we can understand this if
- 18:42Speaker 2: we just look at the world. Look at America, the
- 18:48Speaker 2: earlier stages of America where slavery was accepted in this country,
- 18:55Speaker 2: and look at how miserable this life is in the physical,
- 19:00Speaker 2: imagine in the spiritual. It's even worse. You're a slave
- 19:07Speaker 2: to it. It has legal claim. Whenever sin calls, you
- 19:12Speaker 2: have no choice but to obey it. Once you are
- 19:15Speaker 2: a slave. That's why you see people who wreck their lives.
- 19:22Speaker 2: They get out of control. A good example is an
- 19:27Speaker 2: alcoholic or even a drug addict, because at first, you
- 19:34Speaker 2: feel like you're in controls a recreational right. You're doing
- 19:41Speaker 2: it for fun, you're at a party, you're kicking it
- 19:45Speaker 2: with your homies, you're hanging out, and then all of
- 19:48Speaker 2: a sudden, it gets stronger, stronger to where you no
- 19:54Speaker 2: longer have a choice, you no longer have control over it.
- 19:58Speaker 2: You have to obey its life and is desire to
- 20:02Speaker 2: dominate you. That's what sin does in every area in
- 20:09Speaker 2: our thought life. We can be addicted to so many things, gambling, sex, jealousy, anger, laziness.
- 20:21Speaker 2: There's a lot of areas, a lot of ways where
- 20:24Speaker 2: sin wants to enslave us. But God has put that
- 20:29Speaker 2: part of us to death, and sin has known legal
- 20:33Speaker 2: claim any longer. The slavery to sin is broken. You
- 20:40Speaker 2: don't have to answer to its call anymore. That boss
- 20:45Speaker 2: was fired at the cross man, that's a T shirt.
- 20:49Speaker 2: That boss was fired at the cross. Amen. Where we
- 20:55Speaker 2: need to be jumping up and down praising all through
- 20:58Speaker 2: this chapter. Hallelujah. Okay, let's go to verse eight through eleven. Now,
- 21:06Speaker 2: if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall
- 21:12Speaker 2: also live with him. Amen. Living with Christ is the
- 21:18Speaker 2: goal here. Knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead,
- 21:24Speaker 2: dies no more Death no longer has dominion over him. Wow, Look,
- 21:30Speaker 2: this is us right. We want to live that eternal
- 21:36Speaker 2: life where death has no dominion, no claim, no legal
- 21:41Speaker 2: right over us, and we shall die no more for
- 21:47Speaker 2: the death that he died. He died to sin once
- 21:51Speaker 2: for all. But if the life that he lives, he
- 21:56Speaker 2: lives to God. Likewise you all so amen, you are.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Every time you come in to that in scripture, you
- 22:06Speaker 2: also pay attention because this is our application, this is
- 22:11Speaker 2: our response, our responsibility for now on. This is how
- 22:18Speaker 2: we're going to live our lives. This is what we're
- 22:21Speaker 2: going to add to our daily routine. Says likewise, you
- 22:26Speaker 2: also wreckon yourselves to be dead, indeed to sin, but
- 22:32Speaker 2: alive to God. In Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen. Now
- 22:45Speaker 2: Christ's death was final and complete. We are to reckon.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Now that word means to consider or to account ourselves
- 23:01Speaker 2: dead to sin and alive to God. It is a
- 23:07Speaker 2: daily mindset. This is a mental game as much as
- 23:13Speaker 2: a spiritual one. Every morning you choose which you gets
- 23:18Speaker 2: out of bed. Is it going to be the old
- 23:21Speaker 2: you or the new you? Now that word reckon, you know,
- 23:27Speaker 2: I think of a like a redneck type person or
- 23:31Speaker 2: a country person. You know, I reckon, right, you know,
- 23:35Speaker 2: that's what that word reminds me of. So we gotta
- 23:41Speaker 2: go back to the country or something and start using
- 23:45Speaker 2: this word and putting this word to use on a
- 23:48Speaker 2: daily basis. But now, when you reckon your old life
- 23:54Speaker 2: to be dead, the process is like this. It's an
- 24:01Speaker 2: act of faith because you know just as well as
- 24:05Speaker 2: I that old man wants to get out of the
- 24:08Speaker 2: grave as often as possible. So this is where we
- 24:14Speaker 2: choose who to cooperate with. It's like a yield. Think
- 24:20Speaker 2: of yourself as an intersection and you see the yield sign.
- 24:24Speaker 2: You have the power to yield. It's not a stop sign,
- 24:29Speaker 2: it's not a green light, but it's a yield sign.
- 24:35Speaker 2: That means you allow someone else. You yielding yourself to
- 24:40Speaker 2: another power or another force. You could yield either to
- 24:45Speaker 2: your flesh, or you could yield to the spirit. That's
- 24:51Speaker 2: our daily responsibility. Now, even though we're walking in the spirit,
- 24:58Speaker 2: something will pop up in the flesh. I mean guarantee
- 25:01Speaker 2: we got this flesh until Jesus comes home. It can
- 25:06Speaker 2: be something we see, something we hear, something we taste, touch,
- 25:12Speaker 2: anything can resurrect our old life. And so at that
- 25:18Speaker 2: point it doesn't have power over us. We don't have
- 25:22Speaker 2: to sin because this is what Christ has done for
- 25:26Speaker 2: us on the cross. We have been set free. But
- 25:30Speaker 2: it's an act of faith. By faith, you gotta say
- 25:35Speaker 2: you know what I am dead to that. You gotta
- 25:39Speaker 2: keep repeating that I am dead to that. When something
- 25:42Speaker 2: comes up, you gotta say, I am dead to this.
- 25:45Speaker 2: I reckon myself to be dead. And if you continue
- 25:50Speaker 2: to do this, and then that temptation and that old
- 25:55Speaker 2: life will begin to fall off as you walk in
- 25:59Speaker 2: this spirit, as you are more in the spirit. And
- 26:03Speaker 2: that's how we grow closer to God in our walk
- 26:07Speaker 2: with Him, and that's how we grow stronger in the spirit. Heymen,
- 26:20Speaker 2: let's go to Let's take verse twelve and fourteen. Therefore,
- 26:29Speaker 2: do not let sin rain in your mortal body. Now
- 26:33Speaker 2: you see how the responsibility is on us. Sin has
- 26:38Speaker 2: to bow to us. Sin has to be allowed. We
- 26:42Speaker 2: can let it or we can deny it. That's the
- 26:46Speaker 2: power we now have in Christ. Therefore, do not let
- 26:50Speaker 2: sin rain in your mortal body. That you should obey
- 26:56Speaker 2: it in its lust. See obey. These are slave terms,
- 27:01Speaker 2: servant terms. Who are you gonna serve? And do not
- 27:06Speaker 2: present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but
- 27:13Speaker 2: present who are you presenting yourself? To present yourselves to
- 27:19Speaker 2: God as being alive from the dead. Amen, and your
- 27:25Speaker 2: members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall
- 27:29Speaker 2: not have dominion over you. For you are not under
- 27:35Speaker 2: law but under grace. This is the true purpose of grace,
- 27:41Speaker 2: and so that sin shall not have dominion over us.
- 27:49Speaker 2: As I've said throughout this chapter, we have the choice
- 27:53Speaker 2: of who we serve is either sin or is God.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Grace gives us the power to choose righteousness, not the
- 28:04Speaker 2: freedom to sin. I gotta keep naelingness. I gotta keep
- 28:11Speaker 2: pounding on this because there's so much false teaching out
- 28:15Speaker 2: there in churches today and misunderstanding of the grace of God. Now,
- 28:23Speaker 2: your body is an instrument. You can choose who gets
- 28:28Speaker 2: to play your instrument. You can either let God allow
- 28:35Speaker 2: God to make music or the devil. And all he
- 28:43Speaker 2: can do is make noise. He cannot make anything beautiful
- 28:51Speaker 2: with your life. It will always lead to destruction. All right,
- 28:59Speaker 2: let's jump to verse fifteen. We're gonna go from fifteen
- 29:05Speaker 2: to twenty three, so we're gonna go ahead and finish
- 29:11Speaker 2: this out, all right. Fifteen says what then shall we sin?
- 29:18Speaker 2: Because we are not under law but under grace. Like
- 29:25Speaker 2: I said, it'll be easy to misunderstand this, and a
- 29:30Speaker 2: lot of people back in the day was accusing Paul
- 29:33Speaker 2: of teaching this. But the answer is certainly not. Do
- 29:39Speaker 2: you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves
- 29:43Speaker 2: to obey, you are that one slave whom you obey,
- 29:49Speaker 2: whether of sin leading to death, or obedience leading to righteousness.
- 29:57Speaker 2: But God be thanked that through you, though you were
- 30:01Speaker 2: slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that
- 30:07Speaker 2: form of doctrine to which you were delivered. Amen. And
- 30:12Speaker 2: having been set free from sin, you become slaves of righteousness.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Now I speak in human turns because of the weakness
- 30:24Speaker 2: of your flesh. For just as you presented your members
- 30:29Speaker 2: as slaves of unrighteousness and of lawlessness, leading to more lawlessness,
- 30:38Speaker 2: so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness.
- 30:47Speaker 2: For when you were slaves of sin, you were free
- 30:51Speaker 2: in regards to righteousness. Now what fruit did you have
- 30:56Speaker 2: then in the things of which you are now a sham?
- 31:01Speaker 2: So that's saying when you were living a life of wickedness,
- 31:04Speaker 2: you weren't concerned with righteousness. You weren't concerned with doing
- 31:08Speaker 2: right by God or doing right by people. You didn't
- 31:12Speaker 2: care if you lied, stole in anything, or cheated anybody,
- 31:18Speaker 2: for the end of those things is death. But now,
- 31:22Speaker 2: having been set free from sin, and having become slaves
- 31:28Speaker 2: of God, you have your fruit to holiness and the end,
- 31:36Speaker 2: everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death, but
- 31:41Speaker 2: the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus
- 31:46Speaker 2: our Lord. Amen. And that verse right there as a
- 31:52Speaker 2: part of the Romans road to salvation. I encourage you
- 31:56Speaker 2: to memorize his verse and when you're to your unsaved
- 32:01Speaker 2: family members or loved ones, quote it. Just let that
- 32:05Speaker 2: lying out of the cage and just quote the verse. Say,
- 32:09Speaker 2: for the wages of sin is death, but the gift
- 32:12Speaker 2: of life is eternal life through Christ Jesus. That's a
- 32:16Speaker 2: sea planet towards their salvation. Amen. Now let's get the
- 32:22Speaker 2: breakdown now. Verse twenty three is key. Like I just said,
- 32:28Speaker 2: for the wages of sin is death, but the gift
- 32:30Speaker 2: of God is eternal life through Jesus our Lord. Sin
- 32:37Speaker 2: pays what it owes the wages you work for it,
- 32:43Speaker 2: and the only thing that you're gonna get out of
- 32:45Speaker 2: a life of sin is death. But God gives us
- 32:50Speaker 2: what we could never earn, and that is eternal life.
- 32:57Speaker 2: He gives it to us freely if we choose to
- 33:01Speaker 2: trust and obey. Sin is a terrible employer you do
- 33:09Speaker 2: not want to go to work for sin. Don't fill
- 33:12Speaker 2: out an application, do not give your resume to it.
- 33:19Speaker 2: You do not want to work for this employer. It
- 33:24Speaker 2: pays in death. But God's benefit package is out of
- 33:32Speaker 2: this world. You know what I'm saying. God's benefit package
- 33:40Speaker 2: is out of this world. So that breaks it down.
- 33:47Speaker 2: I'm excited to get in chapter seven and eight. This
- 33:52Speaker 2: I'm telling you Roman, the Book of Romans will bring
- 33:58Speaker 2: you to a place victory, immaturity in your walk with God. Now,
- 34:05Speaker 2: we just finished the Book of Revelation, and we went
- 34:07Speaker 2: over all the plagues, we went over all the depth
- 34:12Speaker 2: and destruction, and we know what's gonna happen to this world.
- 34:17Speaker 2: God's wrath is coming. And I felt that we were
- 34:21Speaker 2: led to the Book of Romance so that we can
- 34:24Speaker 2: learn how to live a life of victory, so that
- 34:27Speaker 2: we can be raptured, you know what I'm saying, so
- 34:30Speaker 2: that we can escape all these things that are coming
- 34:35Speaker 2: on planet Earth. If you want to go through the
- 34:38Speaker 2: Book of Revelation with us, just go to the replay.
