“Christians…the only Faith that God will accept”
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more, death hath no more dominion over him. v.10: For in that he died, he died into sin once; but in that he lives, he lives unto God.
Romans 6:9-10
The resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ sets us apart from all others. We KNOW that Christ has risen from the dead and that He is LORD. We know that He will NEVER die again. We KNOW that death has no more dominion over Him. And we KNOW that He lives now and forever more!
Romans 6 begins with liberal logic. Paul refutes this kind of ridiculous logic. It is an evil logic. It believes that since we are saved from our sins because Christ died for our sins, we should continue in sin so His grace may abound.
We didn’t die to make restitution for our own sins. Christ accomplished that for us. And His glorious resurrection from the dead accomplished eternal life for us too! This morning, I give thanks to Him again for His power to defeat death. And for the FACT that those of us who believe in HIM, shall live forever with Him. And that is no reason to live like the devil. Jesus has risen from the dead and HE alone is LORD!
