Rm7

How much influence should the law and sin have on our daily activity? Paul's answer, "The same as a widowed spouse!" The Spirit and righteousness has come and eliminated the former relationship we had with sin and flesh.

Yet…we are still alive to sin and tempted by our flesh. Paul says, "For in my inner self, I joyfully agree with God's law. But I see a different law in the parts of my body, waging war…" To live the christian life is not a "walk in the park", but rather, a daily war against two real and living desires.

To live for God and what truly matters is a choice that we will have to make every day! It is a choice that will be unnatural to us until we escape this life and are able to literally be with Jesus.

Choose to live for Christ today.
