You must be born again.

He will have mercy if you seek to abide by the truth of the matter.

Reckon yourself dead to sin and alive to Christ. This is an act of faith. Your identity is in Christ if you have put your faith in Him. We died with Him and we are raised to new life in Him. He delivers us from sin. Call on the name of the Lord.

Learn to meet your needs first. Don't assume every thing you want is sin. Just because you have lust doesn't mean is sin. If you are hungry and you decided to buy a ham burger, is not sin. Just because you are hungry it's not sin. It depends whether what you do hurts you or others or not. But remember God's is there to heal you, love you and restore you. He is not there to point out your faults. God remember your sins no more

Emmanuel Dunbar Exactly, His grace teaches us, his true love! We have died to to the law, and we are set free becouse of Jesus” Death,burial and resurrection!

Fully trusting God's grace will not defeat sin in our lives unless we understand that sin can only be overcome by loving something higher than sin. When Christ becomes the Object of our supreme love through faith in His ever-present spirit, only then can we overcome sin.

Nicely put. I like how you expanded on Rom 8:1

WHO WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH, BUT AFTER THE SPIRIT. (The rest of Romans 8:1) Only OSAS calvinists leave out the second half so obedience, is to them, unnecessary

Praying now for you. Andrew is a good teacher for this understanding. I have this struggle also. The enemy tempts us then tries to get us to condemn ourselves. Romans 5:20, 1 Corinthians 5:21, Hebrews 8:12, Ephesians 2:8,9, The gospel/ good news: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. GOD Bless you! Shalom

@@kevincross3730 I condemn myself I don’t want to do this anymore

Janet Dorsey He’s wrong.

⁠@@sedrickcarterjr Where is he wrong? By the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin. (Romans 3:19-22) For the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me FREE from the law of sin (Romans 7:23) and death. (7:24) (8:2-3) I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So under the Law we serve God with the mind, but serve sin with the flesh. (7:25) But if you are lead of the Spirit you are not under the law. (Galatians 5:18) Paul said that right after he described the same struggle as in Romans 7 for those who do not walk in the Spirit (salvation /2 Corinthians 3:6) but fulfill the list of the flesh. Galatians 5 goes on to say that, “They that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.” (V.24)

Tatersalad19 Cars Done and done. I’m there with you brother

Natalia Mason thank you

Tatersalad19 Cars done God bless you ❤️

Another's pray will not help unless you are prepared to come to the obedience of faith in Christ. Ask me if you want me to explain.

It is about being under the law and not the Christian experience, but often times Christians do suffer from temptation and sometimes fall into sin when they know better, I can see how this interpretation can still be applied.

The Nkjv is corrupted

katlin jones If you don't mind letting me know why you say its corrupted please?

Yes!

janver escueta Great response, except you lack one thing. You said "we are not under the law". According to scripture, We are under the law of Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 9:21)

@@sedrickcarterjr yup.. We are now under our new husband.. Christ... Law of Faith

Jackie Patawaran amen underneath the law we are wretched underneath the law we will struggle. As Christians we suffer from temptations, some Christians may fall into sin and hate it and don’t know why, but Romans 8, is what a Christian should be not Romans 7.

Amen!

Amen thank you. It helped me.

We are not hypocrites. We are saints, given a new name by Jesus Christ himself. Surely you know the importance of names and identity in the bible. That's the only part of what u said that i disagreed with. But don't mix truth with faulty identity. It can be detrimental to people who read your ideas and believe what you say.

You need to see the grace of God that way: Titus 2:11-14 11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people, 12 *instructing us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly desires, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;* 13 looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ; 14 who gave himself for us, that he might *redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.* If the grace of God instructs you to say 'No' to sin, then that part is up to you, and that is why the grace of God can be received in vain by someone who does not use it for what it's given for (e.g. 2 Corinthians 6:1). NB I am just responding to your comment, not endorsing the message given in this video.

No it's present struggle

No he wasn't he was talking about everyone's (believers) present state, we are all wrapped in a corpse of flesh with the sin nature but the inner man the soul/spirit is born again incorruptible and cannot sin for the seed of God remains in us and we cannot sin (the new creature in Christ) but our flesh will continue to sin until we are separated from it upon death or the rapture. If it were his past why would he go on to say Who will deliver me from this body of sin and death?

​@@Starbuckin Romans 8 continues to tell believers to walk after the spirit.8 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus ,who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. I suggest you meditate on this scripture. And find out what in Christ means?.

@@steviet3995 I suggest you do the same. If you think it's something that you do yourself you are mistaken. Salvation is a gift from God for believing. Do you think the the thief on the cross who got saved did any good work at all? He believed and was saved. John 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. If you think you are contributing to your own salvation by doing or not doing ANYTHING you are in error. I'm not denying that we should walk after the Spirit and do our very best not to sin and follow Him and obey His commands. BUT - our own works do not save us. Even Paul told the church to turn over the fornicating man to Satan and at the end his works would be burned up but he would be saved.

​​@@Starbuckin Do you think the Lord requires only believe in him?Or does he also require us to repent of our sins.(meaning to change our minds about sin, and to stop sinning). I believe he requires both to believe on him, and repent (of sin). Alot of Christians believe that repentance is to, repent of your unbelief. A Muslim is an example of unbelief, unbeliever in Jesus. The Jesus they believe is a prophet. So they believe in a works based Salvation, because they don't believe in the gospel of Christ. And then at the other end of the scale you have Christians who believe in the gospel of Christ,then walk after the flesh. Who haven't repented, turned from sin in there lives. Jesus said repent, and believe the gospel. If we only had to believe to be saved, Jesus would have said, believe in the gospel. But he didn't,he said repent first,then believe the gospel.

@@steviet3995 The repent and believe the gospel is the gospel of the Kingdom preached to Jews and not the gentiles. Does Paul’s Gospel to us Gentiles say anything about repenting to believe and be saved? NO. You must rightly divide the Word of Truth. Paul’s Gospel 1st Corinthians 15 1-4 : 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

You don't sin? Even peter and Paul sin after Jesus resurrection

"Current" Law? The laws and commandments Jesus spoke to His Jewish disciples about are misunderstood by most today and are completely different than THE Law(Old Covenant). We are now not under the law and, in fact, the Bible says we are "dead to THE law" praise the Lord! You'll find in John's epistles that the commandments Jesus spoke of are simply to believe, love God and love people.

Exactly.....freedom from sin is freedom from Law? What? Put me under Law O sin? This is counter to let's say.....traffic Law....sign says school zone 15......oh well...I shall go 51! This brother may mean well...but he is wrong.....see the very first four verses of Romans 8....God gives us Grace to keep the Law not break it (1John 2:1-2).

Torrah

The law of God is everything, the law of man is nothing.

@Wang Chung shame on you Christians for following Paul. Christianity is ripe with replacement theology. So basically God gave His law to people and then changed his mind? Now there is a new covenant? I bet most of you don’t even know the law or take time to study it under rabbis who spend their whole lives teaching it. I’ll bet you listen to gentile pastors on Sunday trying to explain the law in their own theology in order to further the agenda. I can fully tell you that there are more theological holes in the New Testament than Swiss cheese. Go watch jews debate Christians. Absolutely destroys them. Almost all of you have no idea what the law really means.

(7.) What shall we say then ? Is the law ( law of animal sacrifice ) sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgression of the law of God ) ? God forbid . Nay , I had not known sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgression of the law of God ) , but by the law ( law of animal sacrifice ) : for I had not known lust , except the law ( law of animal sacrifice or the law of sin and death ) had said , Thou shalt not covet ( Romans 3:20 , Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight : for by the law is the knowledge of sin ; Hebrews 10:1-4 , " 1. For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. 2. For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. 3. But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. 4. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. ) . (8.) But sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) , taking occasion by the commandment ( law of animal sacrifice , or another name is ; the law of sin and death ) wrought in me all manner of concupiscence ( Romans 5:20 , " Moreover the law entered , that the offence might abound . But where sin abounded , grace did much more abound " ) . For without the law ( law of animal sacrifice , or law of sin and death ) sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) was dead ( Romans 5:13, " For until the law ( law off animal sacrifice ) sin ( the transgression of the law of God ) was in the world ( which entered into the world when Adam transgressed against the law of God ) : but sin ( the transgression of the law of God ) is not imputed ( represents something undersirable as been done , caused or possessed by someone ) when there is no law ( law of animal sacrifice , or law of sin and death ) . What Paul is saying : Before the law of animal sacrifice was given through the mediator Moses for the sin of the flesh/body , the God of Israel required all to repent with a sorrowful heart , like king David did , through faith ; remember , grace by faith ; the priesthood of faith ( Melchisedec ) has always been available from the beginning , for the one's who live by faith . There is no grace or mercy through the law of animal sacrifice ,and some transgressions against the laws of the Father , there were no sacrifice to protect the flesh/body ( man picking up sticks on the sabbath day ) . ( 9.) For I was alive without the law once : ( law of animal sacrifice , or schoolmaster ) but when the commandment came ( law of animal sacrifice , or law of sin and death ) , sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) revived , and I died ( Ezekiel 20:24-25 , " Because they had not executed my judgments , but had despised my statutes , and had polluted my sabbaths , and their eyes were after their father's idols . Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good , and judgments whereby they should not live " ) . And the commandment ( circumcision of the flesh/body for sin , or the law of animal sacrifice ) which was ordained to life ( keep the earthly tabernacle or body alive ) , I found to be unto death ( law of animal sacrifice could not forgive you of the heart/spirit , or the second tabernacle , or the second death ) . ( 10.) For sin ( 1 John 3:4 ,the transgressions of the law of God ) taking occasion by the commandment ( law of animal sacrifice , or the law of sin and death ) , deceived me , and slew me ( most of Israel believed that salvation came through the law of animal sacrifice , or the law of works , or another name was the law of Moses ; because Moses was the intercessor , or husband for the people under the covenant with the Father , through the priesthood of Leviticus ) . (11.) Wherefore the law ( animal sacrifice and oblations , or law of works ) is holy , and the commandments ( schoolmaster , or animal sacrifice ) holy , and just and good . ( 12.) Was then that which is good ( law of animal sacrifice or circumcision of flesh for sin ) made death unto me ( this sacrifice or atonement was for the earthly tabernacle , not th heavenly tabernacle ) ? God forbid . But sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) , that it might appear sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) ,working death in me by that which is good ( Hebrews 10:4 , " For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins " ; which the law of animal sacrifice was also called the law of sin and death . Once you transgress the laws of God , your circumcision is made uncircumcision , Romans 2:25 ) ; that sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the laws of God ) by the commandment ( law of animal sacrifice ) might become exceeding sinful ( Romans 5:20 ) . ( 13.) For we know that the law ( law of animal sacrifice ) is spiritual : but I am carnal sold under sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) . For that which I do I allow not :for what I would , that do I not ; but what I hate , that do I ( What Paul is saying , when he should keep the laws of God , that he do not ; when he go through the law of animal sacrifice for the atonement of sin , that he should not do ; but what he hate ( law of animal sacrifice ) , that do I . ( 14.) If then I do that which I would not ( make an atonement through the law of animal sacrifice ) , I consent unto the law ( law of animal sacrifice ) that it is good ( which was only for the atonement of the flesh/body , not the heart/spirit ) . ( 15.) Now then it is no more I that do it , but sin ( 1 John 3:4 , the transgressions of the law of God ) that dwelleth in me . For I know that in me ( that is in my flesh ) dwelleth no good thing ( the circumcision of flesh for sin ) : for to will is present with me ; but how to perform that which is good I find not . ( 16.) For the good that I would I do not ( repenting by faith , the law of Christ ) : but the evil which I would not , that I do ( atonement through the law of works , or animal sacrifice ) . ( 17.) Now if I do that I would not ( atonement through the law of animal sacrifice ) , it is no more I that do it , but sin ( 1 John 3:4 , transgressions of the law of God ) that dwelleth in me ( law of animal sacrifice could not forgive you of the sins of the heart/spirit , because it was not of faith ) . ( 18.) I find the a law ( law of animal sacrifice , or law of sin and death ) , that , when I would do good ( go through the law of animal sacrifice for the atonement ) , evil is present with me ( law of works could not free you of the sins of the heart/spirit ) . ( 19.) For I delight in the law of GOD after the inward man ( law of faith , circumcision of the heart for sin ; which means that you repent of your sins with a sorrowful heart , then believe by obeying your mediator Jesus Christ commandments ; which he received from the Father ) . ( 20.) But I see another law in my members , ( law of animal sacrifice ; which the Israel continued to use for the cleaning of the body , not for SIN ; that became unclean due to touching a dead body , etc... ) , warring against the law of the mind ( circumcision of the heart/spirit for sin , or the law of Christ , or the law of grace , or the law of liberty , or the law of righteousness , or the law of faith , etc... ) , and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin ( law of animal sacrifice , or the law of sin and death ) which is in my members . ( 21.) O wretched man that I am who shall deliver me from the body of this death ( law of animal sacrifice , or the law of sin and death ) ? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord ( circumcision of the heart for sin ) . So then with the mind ( The atonement of faith through Jesus Christ ) I myself serve the law of God (The commandments of the Father ; which includes all the covenants ; which are instructions to righteousness ) ; but with the flesh the law of sin ( the law of animal sacrifice for the cleaning of the flesh/body , when it becomes unclean ) . When we use the word law , understand that the bible talks of three types of laws ( 1.) Laws of the Father ; which are his commandments/laws/instructions , that includes all the covenants that he has given man from the beginning ( Adam ) to the end of the creation ( white ; throne judgment ; these are instructions for righteousness ( 2 Timothy 3:14-17 ) ; (2.) The law for the atonement of sin of the flesh/body , through the mediator Moses ; which was called the law of animal sacrifice and oblations through works , not of faith or the inward man ; (3.) The law for the atonement of sin of the heart/spirit , through the mediator Jesus Christ ; which was called the law of faith ; the blood of Christ through faith ; which is to repent of your sins with a sorrowful heart , then believe by keeping the commandments of your mediator Jesus Christ ; which he received from the Father . Shalom !

Interesting

Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Romans 3:27

That's Matthew 5 16-20

Dear friend I hope your righteousness does exclude that of the Scribes and Pharisees because that only happens when you(we) are IN CHRIST :) The scripture you are citing here is "pre-death, pre-burial and pre-resurrection" teaching to religious Jews enlightening them that their righteousness is as "filthy rags" in regards to attaining eternal life. It's important to realize the context here. He is speaking to Jews who are still under the law-Old Covenant. Thank God for the new!

Reprent 1107 unfortunately omits the rest of the gospel which shows the following: Christ fulfilled the Mosaic law so we could be free from its obligations (In Romans Paul tells that law and our old self was nailed to cross with Christ and now we are called to live by a new law of the Spirit which is faith expressing itself in love. We are free not to live for ourselves but as living sacrifices for his glory.

It's panning left to right in my headphones I can't focus on what ur sauing

The Mosaic law as laid out in certain sections of the Torah (the first five books of the Bible).

Paul is talking about Jews who were enslaved to the law of Moses before the time of Christ. Paul's not talking about his personal experience as a sinner.

You don't sin? As long as we are in this fleshly body we will experience temptation.
