For The Law Of The Spirit Of life Has Made Us Free (Romans 8: 1-8)
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” ( Romans 8:1-8)
The repentant sinners will have no condemnation if they remain in Christ through faith, abide in Him, and if they walk in the power of the Spirit.
The law of Moses failed because of the weakness of human nature.
The term “sinful flesh” does not imply that our nature is inherently sinful, but our flesh has become corrupt and given over to all manners of sin.
Christ has the power to change the human nature by becoming flesh Himself.
Christ did not sin, for He came in our likeness of our sinfulness, but did not succumb to it.
In doing so, He condemned sin itself, destroying its power over mankind.
In Christ, human nature has victory over sin.
Now, the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
The mind thus follows that repentance literally.
The word mind here means the highest knowing faculty of the soul, the spirit, and the understanding behind all we think and do.
So when our mind changes, this means not only of our intellect but all of our being.
So we change from carnal minded, which means to have one’s whole being captivated by sin, to spiritual minded.
To be spiritually minded means to accept liberation by the Holy Spirit, so that one’s whole being, body, mind, and soul become directed and led by the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
