—Romans 8:1-11
by: Sheri Rood.
If everyone followed God’s laws, we could all live at peace with God and each other. But we want our own ways, to make our own laws, and our sinful hearts put us in rebellion against God and at war with each other. This is the path of death. Christ’s righteousness frees us to live by the Spirit of God, which always draws us toward Jesus Christ and the Father, never away. He enables us to keep God’s laws and to be at peace with Him and others who are also walking by the Spirit of God. This is the path of life.
