A LIFE IN THE SPIRIT OF GOD

Romans 8:1-17

Truth: A life without the Spirit of God. A life that has the Spirit of God. A life in which the Spirit has you. Are you living in the Spirit?

I. A LIFE WITHOUT THE SPIRIT OF GOD

  1. You are condemned by the Law to sin and death. Rom 8:1-2; Rom 3:20; Gal 3:22;24
  2. You have rejected the atonement of Christ. Rom 8:3-4; John 3:18
  3. You cannot please God without the Spirit. Rom 8:5-8; Rom 3:23

II. A LIFE THAT HAS THE SPIRIT OF GOD

  1. You are in Christ because the Spirit dwells in you. Rom 8:9; 2 Cor 5:17
  2. The evidence of conversion is the presence of the Holy Spirit within, witnessing that you are a child of God. Rom. 8:16
  3. Your body becomes the very temple of the Holy Spirit. 1 Cor 6:19-20

III. A LIFE IN WHICH THE SPIRIT HAS YOU

  1. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Life. Rom 8:1-4; Rom 8:16; John 16:13-15
  2. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Death. Rom 8:13; Gal. 2:20; Rom 6:12-17
  3. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Adoption. Rom 8:15-17; 1 Cor 2:12

LIVING FOR AN AUDIENCE OF ONE

Matthew 11:25-30

Truth: Jesus reveals Himself to the humble. Jesus invites all who labor and are heavy laden to Him for rest. Jesus says the yoke is easy and the burden light. Who are you living for?

I. JESUS REVEALS HIMSELF TO THE HUMBLE

  1. God always resist the intellectually and spiritually proud. Matt 11:25-26; James 4:7;1 Peter 5:5
  2. God through Christ reveals Himself to the child like humble and honest. Matt 11:27; Matt 16:17; James 4:7-10

  2. Jesus says take my yoke and find a deeper rest of surrender and obedience. When we submit to Christ, we are yoked to Him. This is talking about discipleship Matt 11:29; Luke 9:23; Phil 4:6-8
  3. Jesus says learn of Me. The more we learn about Jesus the more we can know Him and His peace. Isa 26:3; 2 Tim 2:15

III. JESUS SAYS THE YOKE IS EASY, THE BURDEN IS LIGHT

  1. The word “easy” means “well-fitting”; He has just the yoke that is tailor-made for our lives and needs. Matt 11:30; 1 Cor 15:10
  2. The burden of doing His will is not a heavy one. 1 John 5:3
