The law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death(Romans 8:2).Being set free of something, by definition, means you must be in bondage to something. That “something” is sin and death. We are by nature under God’s Wrath and will face eternal punishment in hell if we remain in our sin, not because God is bad, but because God is a Holy and Righteous Judge that cannot let sin go unpunished.

 To ignore or deny this Truth does not change the reality of it, however, if we feel the weight of conviction over our sin we can be redeemed. God loves us so much that He sent His Son to bear the sin of the world on His Cross. At the Cross of Jesus you will find forgiveness and cleansing of your sin, you will be washed clean in the Blood of Jesus Christ. You will be set free from the bondage of sin and death IF you will repent (turn from your sin) and put your faith in Him alone to save you.

 When you do this you become born-again (John 3:3) and God gives you a new heart(Ezekiel 36:26), a heart to turn from wickedness and live for righteousness. When this happens, by His Grace and Mercy, He will give us Eternal Life instead of eternal death(1John 5).

 

Keep in mind that if you are in Christ (if you are saved) your life will look different; you will start to love the things God loves and hate the things God hates.  If these changes don’t start to take place, then it is likely you are not born-again and you need to repent and trust in Jesus today; we are not guaranteed tomorrow.
Romans, Ephesians, and John are a great place to start reading
your Bible and learn the Truth of God’s Word
