     | 8,707 views

    Those who are in Christ are aware of the dangers and consequences of sin, and yet most today are unwilling to confront it. While we must work with compassion, we also have an obligation to address sin and deal with it in our lives.

    Romans 7 delves into the struggles we as Christians experience in this world: wanting to follow God yet often caught up in our sin nature. What does Paul teach us about how we are to look at that reality?

    As Christians, we have to work to tune into the Spirit and tune out the flesh to successfully walk with God.

    SQUELCHING THE SINFUL NATURE Text: Romans 8:6- 11 How many times have we heard of the self-made man? Frank Sinatra once sang about how he did his way------“I did it my way …”.

    We take up the matter of the sin nature to combat an error. How do the righteousness and justice and forgiveness of God interact? Do I actually have a sinful nature causing me to sin, or is the world responsible for sinfulness?

    Breaking The Cycle Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Feb 1, 2016
     | 12,075 views

    We have the tendency to commit sin, then repent, then give our devotion to God, then when all is well, we sin again and we fall into bondage. This is the experience of Israel in the Book of Judges. Only Jesus can break this bondage of sin.

    Judges 2:18-19 (NIV) " 18 Whenever the Lord raised up a judge for them, he was with the judge and saved them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived; for the Lord relented because of their groaning under those who oppressed and afflicted them. 19 But when the judge died, the ...read more

    Christ has redeemed us, but we must crucify our old nature.

    WE MUST CRUCIFY OUR OLD NATURE When God draws us to himself, He enables us to respond to His call by repenting and making Him Lord. If we repent, something awesome happens! We become born again.

    The Aspects Of Authentic Salvation

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Oct 8, 2023
     | 1,246 views

    Salvation does not originate with us. We cannot redeem ourselves because our sinful nature does not want to acknowledge that God alone is the Author and Provider of our salvation as written in the Scriptures.

    The Scriptures make it abundantly clear that we are given a set amount of time on this earth, and then face the judgment (Hebrews 9:27). No one, from prince to pauper, will be exempt. We will all give an account of our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 12:13-21; John 5:28-29; 1 Corinthians ...read more
