WE ARE DEAD TO SIN
(Romans 6:11) Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
The revival of the law killed man. But the revelation Righteousness killed the law.To be dead to sin , the law had to die.We are permanently separated from sin through our righteousness in Christ. (Romans 6:17-18 ) But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
BEING THEN MADE FREE FROM SIN, ye became the servants of righteousness. We CANNOT serve to masters at a time. We cannot be servant of SIN and servant of RIGHTEOUSNESS at the time.
The law was covering the righteousness of God. until Christ came Before the law Abraham had already attain righteousness through Christ.Because he accepted the Gospel.(Roman 4:1-5) 1 ¶ What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? 2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly,HIS FAITH WAS COUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS .
Ga 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, PREACHED BEFORE THE GOSPEL TO ABRAHAM, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
The live of Christ is a dead life to the law. The life of sin is a dead life to a righteous man. Why live a dead life when you are dead to the dead life. We are alive in Christ Halleluajah. The life we live now is the life of Christ.We are superior to the law and sin. We were their slaves before but now we are free from their bondage..We cannot connect any more. We have been disconnected from the law of sin and death.
Shout Amen.
