Faith & Love: A One Year Bible Reading Plan - Part 2

DAY 10 OF 20

In this passage, Paul is saying that if your line of thinking is to keep sinning so that you can receive more of God’s wonderful grace, you are missing the point because that is no longer who you are.

Jesus died for us; He sacrificed His life for us.

When we come to faith, there is something of a rebirth that happens:

  • We die to an old way of living, separating us from a relationship with God.
  • We are now a new creation in Christ (2 Cor 2:17). We have received a new identity in Christ.

The challenge is that we struggle to adjust and align our minds to this new reality. We still live from an old reality, from an old paradigm.

We sometimes still feel guilty and a little bit convinced – that we're just a sinner saved by grace. But as a child of God, that is not true.

The good news is: "You are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus."

You are no longer a slave to sin because you have become a slave to righteous living.

Let’s use our bodies as instruments to do what is right for the glory of God!
