05-04-2014 SUN (Rom 6 1-10) The Believer is to Know His Position in Christ Pt 2

THE BELIEVER IS TO KNOW HIS POSITION IN CHRIST PART 2

1.) THE BELIEVER AND THE QUESTION OF LICENSE (ROM. 6:1-2)                                                                
2.) KNOW 1ST: BY POSITION, THE BELIEVER IS IMMERSED, PLACED INTO CHRIST (ROM. 6:3-5)
3.) KNOW 2ND: BY POSITION, THE BELIEVER’S OLD MAN WAS CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST (ROM. 6:6-7)

a.) To destroy the “Body of sin” (Lk. 9:23; Ro. 8:36; 2 Cor. 4:11;  Gal. 2:20; 2 Tim. 2:11)
b.) To enable the believer to renounce sin (Ro. 6:11; Gal. 5:24; Col. 3:3, 5; 1 Pet. 2:24; 1 Pet. 4:1-2)
c.) Illustration: A dead man (Eph. 1:7; 1 Jn. 1:9, 2:1-2; Col. 2:6; Ro. 1:17)

4.) KNOW 3RD: BY POSITION, THE BELIEVER LIVES WITH CHRIST – NOW AND FOREVER (ROM. 6:8-10)

a.) Christ has conquered death (Rom. 6:8-9) (2 Tim. 1:10; Heb. 2:14-15; 1 Pet. 3:18)
b.) Christ now lives forever to God (Rom. 6:10) (Jn. 16:28, 17:11; Mk. 16:19; Lk. 22:69; Eph. 1:20; Phil. 2:8-9; Heb. 10:12; Jn. 3:16, 5:24, 17:24; 2 Cor. 5:14-15)

We are “In Christ” – therefore sin and death have no dominion over us. We are “freed from sin” – not “free to sin.
