Where the Spirit of the Lord Is, There Is Freedom
2 Corinthians 3:5–6 (NASB)
Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
This week’s discussion is on the Holy Spirit and the way it brings life and freedom to the world.
Who Will Set Me Free?
Pastor JoAnn reads through Romans 7–8 to encourage all that there is no condemnation for those who love the Lord.
“He will cut you free from this body of death. Pretty graphic, right? But that next verse—thanks be to God; Jesus has done that. He’s cut us free from that death thing. He’s cut us free from that. We’ve been translated from darkness into the kingdom of light. He has cut us free!
“Now, the enemy wants to continually remind you of that dead guy that used to be you. He wants you thinking about that, instead of what Christ has done for you (He has set you free from all that). That’s what leads up to these famous scriptures in Chapter 8: There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.”
