WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FREE FROM INDELLING SIN?

Do you wanna be setfree?

'‘ 'There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.’ Romans 8: 1-2

Here in verse 1, it talks about that there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, because they do not walk according to the flesh but according to the spirit. But what is condemnation? It means to bring judgement upon someone. What is the role of the law? The law bring condemnation because it points out stimulate and condemns sin. How does that relate to those who are in Christ Jesus, It relates to them because those who believe in his name, have redemption in His blood, and are made partaker of his spirit. They will have the same way of thinking as he did and most of all they will walk according to the Spirit not according to the flesh.

In verse 2, it talks about freedom from the law of sin and death, by the spirit of life in Christ Jesus. Here Paul is talking about the controlling power of the Holy Spirit, whom is life giving. The apostle Paul uses the word ‘Law’ in many different ways, but in this case he uses it t show the controlling power in sin which results in death. The only time that we will be freed from sin is when we walk according to the Holy Spirit.
