How Sin is Overcome—Romans 7

Do you love your wife and children? Do you feel sometimes that they doubt your love? Stop for a minute and examine, perhaps in a new way, how God feels when we second guess His love as the heavenly Father. It's for our own good that He shepherds us and shows us something better than our own way.

In this continuation of “How Sin is Overcome—Romans 6,” Jamie Lash focuses on the war of intelligence being waged between the lies of the tempter and the Truth of God's spoken Word as outlined in Romans 7–8:2. It is possible to be free and not know it!

If it was a proud thing before to think of myself highly when God said I in fact was a sinner, how much more is it false humility now, after salvation, to think of myself still as a sinner when God says He has made me in fact a new creature!

As humans we are tempted, often, to use any number of reasons to believe that God is not good. What could be farther from the truth? Rejoice with Jamie Lash at the perspective-changing joy of acknowledging what God says to be true about Himself, about me, and about my present situation.
