The Real Reason Christians Struggle With Sin | Romans 7 Explained

Send us Fan MailWhat does Romans 6 teach about grace, repentance, identity, and obedience? If salvation is entirely a gift from God, does it really matter how a Christian lives afterward?Romans 6 makes the answer clear. Grace does not give us permission to continue serving sin. Through Jesus Christ, something has fundamentally changed. We have been brought from death to life, freed from sin’s dominion, and called to walk in newness of life.In this chapter-by-chapter study of the New Testament in chronological order, we look at three major challenges facing the church today:Grace without repentanceSalvation without a changed identityFaith without obediencePaul explains that our old man was crucified with Christ and that sin should no longer have dominion over us. The Christian life is not about earning salvation through good works. Salvation is the gift of God. But genuine faith produces a changed life and obedience from the heart.Romans 6 ultimately confronts us with an important question: If God has rescued us from slavery to sin, why would we voluntarily return to our old master?Join the Skool community: https://www.skool.com/estero-ekklesia-1658Support the Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394920/support Support the show
