Looking Inward, Looking Outward: How the Christians’ Struggles Still Strengthen Us in the Gospel
Romans 7:14-25 Here is a fundamental paradox of the Christian life: When you know God and his truth, you know yourself better, which causes you to feel like you know yourself less. 1. Your new identity reveals who you were, are, and will be. pneumatikos:spiritually somatikos:bodily sarkikos:fleshly You will continue to fight the flesh until the very end. 2. Awareness of and discontentment with sinful struggles is a mark of the Christian. Three ways of thinking about the inner self: When I do what I don’t want When I want what I don’t do When I do what I truly want We can analyze our self at different levels, and every one of them is us. 3a. If you desire the good, do you have the ability to carry it out? 3b. Put off the power of sin. Put on the power of the Spirit! Ephesians 4: 20–22. 4. The mind is the leading edge of Christian discipleship. The flesh is the leading edge of sin’s resistance. Rethink your entire approach to your fight with sin. 5. If you are confessing, you are winning.
