Pastor Craig. Romans chapter 8:1-16 Life in the spirit.

Romans 8

- **Life in the Spirit vs. Life in the Flesh (Rom 8:1–11)**

 - There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus.

 - Believers are freed from the law of sin and death through the Holy Spirit.

 - The Spirit dwells in believers, enabling them to live righteously and to put to death the misdeeds of the body.

 - The mind governed by the Spirit leads to life and peace.

- **Future Glory for Believers (Rom 8:12–25)**

 - Believers are adopted as God’s children and have the Spirit as a guarantee.

 - Creation awaits the revelation of the sons of God; creation is subjected to frustration, but it longs for redemption.

 - We groan inwardly as we wait for the redemption of our bodies.

 - The Spirit intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

- **The Spirit Helps in Weakness (Rom 8:26–27)**

 - The Spirit helps us in our weakness and intercedes for us according to God’s will.

- **God’s Everlasting Purpose (Rom 8:28–30)**

 - God works all things for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

 - Those whom He foreknew, He predestined, conformed to the image of His Son, and those He called, justified, and glorified.

- **Security of Believers (Rom 8:31–39)**

 - If God is for us, who can be against us?

 - Christ intercedes for us; nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.
