Pastor Josh takes us through Romans 6 this morning:
“One of the reasons that so many Christians seem to be losing the struggle with sin is due to their faulty view of sin, and what actually takes place at conversion. You see, how we think about what happens to us when we are born again impacts how we live today. Our passage this morning is wonderful because we should see in it how God, through Paul, is commanding us to embrace a critical and foundational truth: the power of sin’s dominion has been broken for those who have been born again…(T)he grace that believers receive is so powerful that it breaks the dominion of sin. This grace delivers not merely from punishment, but from sin’s power and rule…it doesn’t simply involve forgiveness of sins, but it also involves a transfer of Lordship, so that believers are no longer under that tyranny of sin.”
