The Spirit – Romans 8:10-12
Vs 10 – If Christ dwells in
us we know our body must be dead to trespass and sin. Sin makes our bodies dead to the things of
God. The Spirit brings one powerful
component to our lives. This truth is
that we are righteous and have been made the righteousness of Christ.
Vs 11 – I love how Paul puts
this. That same Spirit raised Christ
from the dead dwells in you. You have
resurrection power in you. This resurrection
power will quicken your mortal body. The
Holy Spirit who dwells in you will quicken you.
He will empower you to walk in resurrection power. You can and will win over the world, the
flesh and the devil. The Holy Spirit
dwells in you with resurrection power.
Vs 12 – Paul the presents
again the theme that we are debtors.
Everything we have and ever will be is because of Jesus Christ. We owe Him.
We are not to live in the flesh or after the flesh. Our will, intellect and emotions belong to
God.
