The upside is? – Romans 6
March 13, 2013 - Romans 6
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue
our Feast in Romans 6. Saints we must die to sin and have faith
that Jesus delivered us. Living a life
of sin can only lead to death because God will not tolerate sin in heaven. God sent his son Jesus to deliver us (justified
as if we never sinned) Jesus is our righteousness which sets us free from sin.
“18 Therefore, as one trespass led to
condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness leads to justification
and life for all men. 19 For as by the one man's disobedience the many were
made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous.
20 Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased,
grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also
might reign through righteousness leading to eternal life through Jesus
Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:18-21, English Standard Version (ESV). Only through faith in Jesus can we be delivered
from the ways of this world. There is no
fuzzy logic here. The hour we accept
Jesus and turn from our sin we are born into the new life everlasting. “And we know that for those who love God all things work
together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose” Romans
8:28 ESV. When we receive our new
sinless life, we have purpose in Jesus.
His purpose is that none should perish. Our calling is to shed our light for all
men to see our freedom from sin and our relationship with Jesus. This relationship is more meaningful than
living in sin! The upside is that all
things work to the good for those who choose to invite Jesus into their
heart. For the abundance of life that
faith in Jesus gives us, we give God all the glory!

“3 His divine power
has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the
knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, 4 by which he
has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them
you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the
corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.” 2 Peter 1:4 ESV.
