What is “the law of the Spirit of life” spoken about by Paul in Romans 8:2?

A Living Hope For The Hopeless Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 12, 2019

When Jesus rose from the dead, Thomas got a 5 minute show and tell. By contrast, the 2 men on the road to Emmaus received a 3 hour dissertation. Why the difference? Perhaps Jesus spent more time with these hopeless men, to show us how to have a living Hope in a hopeless world.
