Firm Foundations (Pt. 16) Overcoming Sin – Paul M. Williams

Part 16 – How Do I Overcome Sin? Perhaps no greater area deserving of our attention is the question posed as the title of this teaching part; "How Do I Overcome Sin?"  Ask the average Christian this question and you're sure to be greeted with a mixture of responses.  I hear one say, "why are you worried about sin, it's been dealt with at Calvary; the grace of God has covered all sins, past, present, and future".  Another, I hear say "didn't Paul struggle with sin?  The things he wanted to do he didn't do and the things he desired not to do those things he did; what's the problem?  Join the club!  If the great Apostle Paul couldn't gain the victory over besetting sins then how much less us sinners?"  In this sixteenth teaching part, we tackle the issue of overcoming sin head-on, clearing up some of the misconceptions surrounding this matter and providing biblical answers to questions such as; how do I overcome sin?  What does it mean to walk by the Spirit and how does one overcome besetting sins?  May God see fit to use this teaching to bring victory to many lives for His glory!   Download teaching notes (pdf) http://traffic.libsyn.com/bethesdashalom/16_How_Do_I_Overcome_Sin.pdf
