#RescuedFromDeath
“``The Bible is so clear of our inability to save ourselves, but I think the reason we wrestle with this is because of how we explain the gospel. Oftentimes, you've heard this analogy that we are out in the ocean and we're drowning, and we can barely keep our head above float, and we're crying out to God. And Jesus scrolls up in a rowboat, and he throws a life preserver out, and it hits us in the face, and it's right there. And he's like, just grab ahold of it. And that's all we have to do is just grab ahold, and he'll pull us in, and we'll be saved. That's not what the Bible teaches. A more accurate analogy is that we are drowned at the bottom of the ocean, dead. And God, in his great mercy and love, dove in, picked us up, set us on the shore, breathed life into us. This is what Paul was talking about. There's only two minds. You have the mind of the flesh, and you only have the mind of the spirit when God gives it to you. And if you did, there's a fundamental difference.”

#SinRewritesYou
“That's what sin does. Sin doesn't just whoops. It's not that. It over time attaches itself to every part of you that matters most and slowly erodes both your capacity to feel guilt around it, but it imprisons you in those patterns that you don't have the willpower to get out of it. Here's how you know you don't. You're ready? You you because you haven't. You tried and you haven't. You've worked on it and you haven't. You know it and you haven't. Right? And then in the moment, and I think this is always so fascinating. In the moment, when you're looking at decisions and how you're gonna navigate it, right, it's almost like this personification of sin. I remember, I'm gonna write this way. It rewrites yeah. There it goes. Rewrites your past to justify your decisions in the present, to move you away from what God's called you to do.”

#NothingCanSeparateUs
“They can't win God's favor. They can't find his affection or approval. Why? Because they don't have the power. They have they don't have the ability to meet the expectation. The mind of the flesh is death. It has no power to do what it's required, but it is completely dead. And I found it awesome that Paul uses that word only three times and one other time at the end of Romans chapter eight, where he says, for I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all of creation, here's our word, will be able, has the power to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. What a great encouragement that is. The gospel, this is what it is. Christ before Christ saved us, we were dead in our sins, separated from God, powerless to do anything about it. But then God, in his great mercy, sends his son, and he did what we couldn't do. He reconciled to himself, and now there's nothing in all creation that has the power to separate us from him.”

#MindOfSpiritOrFlesh
“And I think it's gonna help us at the very end when we ask the question, am I actually saved or not? Right? So Paul again is going to now describe the difference between a Christian and a non Christian, a believer and a nonbeliever, one who is condemned and one who is not condemned. Verse six, he makes this clear. For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the spirit is life and peace. Now more literally in the Greek, which I think is far more helpful, it actually says, the mind of the flesh is death, and the mind of the spirit is life and peace. And notice he doesn't say the mind of flesh leads to death. No, he says it is death. And he also doesn't say that the mind of the spirit leads to life. No, he says it is life and peace. These two minds are incompatible. They can't coexist within one person. You're you can't be dead if you're a little bit alive, and you can't be alive if you're a little bit dead. It's one or the other.”

#AssuranceInChrist
“So what do you believe? Do you believe that Jesus is the son of the living God and that salvation is found in no one else? If you do, then you can be sure that you are saved, that he has given you his spirit and has enabled you to live the way he wants you and will take you all the way to be with him one day. But, again, we're still gonna struggle with the sin. And though we have the mind of Christ, it doesn't mean that we're not still gonna think fleshly things as this dead body that we're dragging along is gonna trip us up and cause us to fall. But the Bible tells us that when we do this in first John one nine, if we confess our sins, he's faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We gotta cling to that.”

#GodDoesTheImpossible
“``Now this verse is incredibly powerful. And as I studied it today and looked at how it was rendered in the Greek in different ways, I found that the LSB translates it more clearly as to the contrast that I believe Paul is really trying to make here. And so notice the verse again. It'll be up on the LSB translation. For what the law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did. And I love that. The word translated could not do means to be rendered powerlessly or to re to be rendered powerless, to be absolutely impossible. So what he's saying is for what was absolutely impossible for the law to do, God did.”

#JesusPaidItAll
“``And he condemns sin. Think of that. Our sin condemns us rightfully so. There's no excuses in the legal terms. We've committed many crimes, and we all have sinned. We all know we've we've confessed it. There's proof. There's evidence as if we've signed the confession. Therefore, we're condemned, but then God, in his great love for us, stepped off his throne in heaven, came in the likeness of sinful flesh, yet walked without sin fulfilling the whole law, and he walked all the way to the cross to die for your sin and for my sin as an offering to the Lord. And we know God accepted that offering because on the third day, he rose from the dead. That sin that once condemned us, Jesus now condemns. Are you with me? Do you understand what we have in Jesus?”

#VictoryInChrist
“``We've been set free from the law of sin and death because God did what you and I couldn't do. Therefore, let's live that way. Let's live the way he calls us. Will we do that perfectly? No. Not this side of heaven. Our desire will be to live holy, perfect lives for the Lord. But as Paul reminded us in Romans chapter seven, there's a war raging inside the believer. The spirit and the flesh are opposed to each other, keeping us from doing what we desire. In this side of heaven, there's gonna be many battles, and we're gonna win some and we're gonna lose some. But take heart because in Christ, we win the war.”
30s
#ImputedRighteousness
“``And the second one, though, because again, this goes further, is what's called as imputation. And this is a legal word defining in legal terms what actually took place in this substitution. And then in short, what it means is God has imputed our sin onto Christ and then has taken Christ's righteousness and imputes it to us. In other words, what that means is that God treats Jesus the way we deserve to be treated and treats us the way Jesus deserves to be treated.”
46s
#MinistryWithJesus
“``God didn't call you to do the Christian life. He didn't call you to do ministry without Jesus. Like, the calling on the Christian life is not this idea of, okay, man. I gotta hike up my britches, and I just gotta get it done because it's what the Lord's called me to do. No. No. The calling is you lay down your life, and then you trust Jesus to do through you what he promised to do through you. You acknowledge every time you step into any scenario, whether it just be going into work or whether it be doing ministry in the local church, it doesn't really matter, that Jesus is gonna work through you. And if he doesn't, you're sunk. Because we can't do this thing that God's called us to unless Jesus shows up.”
