God's law tells us what we should and shouldn't do. But by itself, it has no power to subdue the spirit of rebellion that naturally rises in opposition to that law. Christ's death makes it possible for sin to be condemned instead of us. And, his resurrection opens the way for the Holy Spirit to rule over our lives. Instead of white-knuckling obedience to a written law which the natural spirit opposes, we are regenerated by the Holy Spirit. His love for us woos us and causes us to respond to him in kind and to walk in love. As we continually submit to his leading, we walk in righteousness and obey God. Thus, obedience comes through the Spirit.

When we enter covenant with Jesus, as at baptism, we are deciding to submit to whatever Jesus tells us--and not to bail out, no matter how painful the journey becomes.

Have you made this covenant with Jesus? Are you staying true to it? Is there an area where you've refused obedience--and hardened your heart? Or are you still unregenerated, and out of Christ today?

The Terrifying Third Commandment

The Terrifying Third Commandment https://youtu.be/1raIzROKo14 This ... https://youtu.be/1raIzROKo14 This is truly a terrifying message because we've grossly misunderstood the third commandment. Please listen to the message with a soft heart, one willing to repent. We've reduced much of the teachings in the church to intellectual understandings, something which will ultimately just gussy up the flesh and allow us to be somebody and continue in our wicked ways. Please avoid that trap as you listen closely to this message and ask the Holy Spirit to identify any areas where you may be taking the name of our Lord in vain. https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=31852&feed_id=4820
