CHECK THE
DIFFERENCE
Roman 6 1 -2 ¶ What
shall we say then? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, that grace may abound?..
Not
SHALL WE CONTINUE TO SIN
Look at verse 2 God forbid. HOW SHALL WE,
THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN,….NOT HOW SHALL WE THAT ARE DEAD IN SIN?….. live any
longer therein? Rom 6:7 For he that is dead (TO SIN…NOT IN SIN) is freed from
sin. Why should we continue to live in a thing that we are dead to and
freed from? We have to think. Why should we continue in SIN that we are dead to
and freed from?
To this we conclude that a believer cannot continue to sin because
he is dead to sin and sin dead to him but a believer can continue in sin that he
or she is dead to and freed from due to their ignorance of the fact that sin is
dead.. This has been a very big challenge to us about the deadness of sin and
the fullness of Grace. Romans 6:1 is not condemning us but challenging us to
renew our minds reminding ourselves that we live in the realm of grace to love
not in the law to sin. 1JOHN 3: 9
WHOSOEVER IS BORN OF GOD DOTH NOT COMMIT SIN; FOR HIS SEED REMAINETH IN HIM:
AND HE CANNOT SIN, BECAUSE HE IS BORN OF GOD.
This was then Eph 2:5
EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD IN SINS…. NOT WHEN WE WERE DEAD TO SINS…., hath
quickened us together with Christ. If we were dead to sins before as now Christ would not have come!
But before Christ, we were dead
in sin and he that is dead in sins is in bondage Col 2:13 ¶ AND YOU, BEING DEAD IN YOUR SINS and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he
quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses. But after
resurrection we became dead to sin and free.
Rom 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin Rom 6:2 God forbid. How shall we,
that are dead to sin, live any longer therein. We cannot connect any more. The
power of sin has been destroyed…..the law.
(1Cor 15:56) The sting of death is sin;
and the strength of sin is the law. We are free therefore we should not
continue to live as if we are under the dominion of sin. We are now in the love
session that lasts forever .We should stop thinking back. We should think
forward. Think of how to love and.. not how not to commit sin. Sin is dead. Glory to Jesus
forever!!!
