Romans8 Final Mb “The one thing I ask of the Lord - the thing I seek most - is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections and meditating in his temple.” Psalm 27:4 DELIGHTING in the LORD BIBLE STUDY SERIES DAY 1: Walking In God’s Blessings: No Condemnation Romans 8:1-17: The Holy Spirit and Holy Living Do you remember when we began Romans, I told you to put on your walking shoes? I told you we were on a journey down the Roman’s Road and that God had something special and intimate just for you, but this journey may be long and difficult at times. Our journey through the first seven chapters of Romans has been in some ways, an upward climb. Maybe you struggled through some of these chapters and the blatant truths of your sinful nature and inability to meet God’s righteous requirements on your own. Maybe you identified with Paul’s sin struggle as he so desperately desired to please God but saw that he continually fell short. You are at a turning point. Keep on with the journey! You are reaching the summit and God’s glorious blessings await you. His greatest desire is that you would receive Him by faith and then yield to Him in all areas of your life so that your life would be pleasing to Him. In this He is glorified. Romans 8 is written for the believer. It is perhaps one of the best known and most loved chapters in all of the Bible. It begins with ‘no condemnation.’ It ends with ‘no separation.’ In the middle, you’ll see there is ‘no defeat.’ Those in Christ are filled with His power to be overcomers in all areas of life. This is all possible through the blessed gift of the Holy Spirit and the finished work of Jesus on the cross at Calvary. When you were justified you were pronounced innocent of sin. Paul will tell you that because of this justification, there cannot be punishment for the guiltless. Instead of punishment, God has given those washed in the blood of Jesus His abundant blessings. God has kept the law for you, and you get to enjoy the benefits. Let’s open this most glorious chapter together. Stand on the mountain top rejoicing in the abundant and victorious life God has for you! You only have four days of study this week. R RECEIVING God’s Word Open in Prayer Read Romans 8: 1-17 Today’s Scripture Focus: Romans 8:1-4 E EXPERIENCING God’s Word 1. Circle the word, “NO” in verse 1 in your Bible. What blessed promise is the believer given in this verse? © Calvary Chapel Chester Springs Romans • 169 DELIGHTING in the LORD BIBLE STUDY SERIES 2. What does it mean for a person to be condemned? Why is the unbeliever condemned? Read John 3:16-21 and write what you learn about God’s great love and condemnation. 3. The word “therefore” in verse 1 of Romans 8 tells you that a summation is being expressed. From all that you have learned in chapters 1-7, why is there no condemnation for the believer? I want you to stop and really let this sink in. The moment you gave your life to Christ and God declared you “justified,” He also took away all condemnation past, present and future. Dave Guzik says it this way, “Since the Father does not condemn Jesus, neither can he condemn those who are in Him. They are not condemned, they will not be condemned, and they cannot be condemned.” God didn’t say, ‘less condemnation.’ He said ‘no condemnation.’ And you didn’t do anything to receive this verdict upon your life other than believe. It is all a working of grace and God’s great gifts to those who believe. Praise be to God! That is cause for rejoicing! 4. In verse 2 you see the second blessing for the believer in Jesus Christ. What is that blessing? From what have you been set free? 5. Explain “the law of the Spirit of life.” a. What does the Holy Spirit do regarding your sanctification? Read the following verses and answer the question. Titus 3:5 John 3:5-8 b. Explain the “law of sin and death.” Look back at Romans 7:23-25 if you need help. © Calvary Chapel Chester Springs Romans • 170 DELIGHTING in the LORD BIBLE STUDY SERIES 6. Look at Romans 8:3. Could the law do anything about our sin? Explain. 7. In Romans 8:3, list all that God did for our sin and to fulfill the law. 8. Romans 8:4 speaks of your holiness and a life reflecting Christ. Look at Galatians 5:16-18. How are the righteous requirements of the law fulfilled in the Spirit filled believer? a. Read Romans 13:8-10. How does this verse describe the law being fulfilled in the believer? 9. In Romans 8:4 how is the believer told to walk? How are they told not to walk? a. Explain what is meant by flesh and Spirit from all that you’ve learned this far. If you need help, go to Galatians 5:16-26. “The law can do many things. It can guide us, teach us, and tell us about God’s character. But the law cannot give energy to our flesh; it can give us the standard, but it cannot give us the power to live pleasing to God” (Dave Guzik Romans commentary.) Only the Holy Spirit can give you the power needed to live a life pleasing to God. A ACTING on God’s Word 1. Paul uses the word “walk” when describing our relationship with Jesus Christ. Walking in the Spirit suggests that there is a course, a direction and forward moving progress. When we allow the flesh to rule over the Spirit, we become bound and stagnant and sometimes backslidden. © Calvary Chapel Chester Springs Romans • 171 DELIGHTING in the LORD BIBLE STUDY SERIES Are you walking in the flesh or the Spirit? How would you describe your walk with God? Would you say you are moving forward in your relationship with Jesus or are there areas where you are standing still? Explain. What areas do you struggle with most? Where do you allow the flesh to rule over the Spirit? 2. You learned today that there is no condemnation for the believer and you are no longer bound by sin. That means you are free from sin’s power and the guilt of sin. Does your life reflect self-inflicted condemnation? What have you learned today that you need to embrace in order to walk in no condemnation? DELIGHTING in God’s Word D Praise God that “you are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). Praise God for your deliver- ance from sin and death through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 7:25). Praise God that through Jesus you can walk each day free from condemnation. Close in Prayer © Calvary Chapel Chester Springs Romans • 172 “The one thing I ask of the Lord - the thing I seek most - is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections and meditating in his temple.” Psalm 27:4 DELIGHTING in the LORD BIBLE STUDY SERIES Day 2: Battlefield of the Mind Romans 8:1-17: The Holy Spirit and Holy Living The mind is a powerful place, and Paul will be quick to point this out in the verses you will be studying today. It is the place where ideas are formed, understanding is gained and decisions are made. But it can also be a place where truth becomes twisted and reality becomes fantasy. Truth can become clouded as emotion enters into the realm of the mind and begins to dictate your thoughts and decisions. The mind is an even more powerful place when you consider your walk with Jesus and ultimately, your Christlikeness. Romans 8 is all about your sanctification and empowering of the Holy Spirit to have victory in all areas of life, including your thought life. It could be said that sin originates in the heart and mind. From the inception of a thought, a choice has to be made regarding that thought. The choice you make regarding that thought will either be Spirit lead or flesh lead depending on where you “set your mind.” I know this battle well. I’m sure you do too. As a parent, I am now watching the battle play out in my 6 year old daughter just as it did in me when I was 6. I am watching as her faith is tested when she allows her fear become larger than God. It often plays out like this. She hears that someone has an illness. She begins to think about the illness. She begins to fear the illness will happen to her. She is in bondage to the fear and comes to me with tears and anxiety in her eyes. She can’t easily fall asleep for the fear keeps her in a prison of unreality. It is painful to watch and breaks my heart. But I thank God that I can walk beside her, at this tender age and give her truth from God’s Word to be an overcomer.

GUPTA Seattle Pacific University Seattle, WA 98119 PAULINE SCHOLARSHIP has always been interested in the “theology” of the Apostle, and questions of his understanding of God, Christ, salvation, the church, and ethics are as passionately pursued now as in any prior generation.1 An impor- tant methodological point that has been widely accepted among scholars, though, is that such attempts at extracting theological bits from Paul must take sufficient account of the ancient context of his writing and the “contingency” of his literary engagements, that is, “the specificity of the occasion to which it was addressed.”2 One major manifestation of this concern for understanding Paul in his original set- ting has been the concern over the Augustinian/Lutheran/Bultmannian approach to soteriology that was centered on personal justification.

  • THE CROSS and CHRISTIAN SEXUALITY (PART 1) 1 Corinthians 6:12-20
    The Cross and Christian Community The Cross and Christian Sexuality (Part 1) Dr. David Platt June 23, 2013 THE CROSS AND CHRISTIAN SEXUALITY (PART 1) 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 If you have Bible, and I hope you do, turn with me to 1 Corinthians 6. Let me also invite you to take out the Worship Guide that you received when you came in. Just in case you have missed the last few weeks of cautions and the numerous emails we’ve sent out, and just in case you missed the caution at the beginning of our worship gathering this morning, I’m going to give you one more caution. This may be applicable, not just for those of you who are here this morning, but also for those who may be listening to this via podcast or download. This morning, we are diving into Part 1 of 2 on “The Cross and Christian Sexuality,” and we’re going to be looking at the last half of 1 Corinthians 6. We have tried to give forewarning that these two messages will be of the PG-13 variety. I want to leave it up to your discretion, but we will be talking about all sorts of terms associated with sexuality and sexual sin in our culture. I really want to have the freedom to use those terms and address prevalent issues in our sex-crazed culture, so if you’ve missed those cautions before now and want to take your children to their respective small groups, or if you’re driving with your kids in the car right now, this is your last warning.

  • Celibacy: an Exegetical Study of 1 Cor. 7:1
    International Journal of Research in Humanities and Social Studies Volume 3, Issue 9, September 2016, PP 29-33 ISSN 2394-6288 (Print) & ISSN 2394-6296 (Online) Celibacy: An Exegetical Study of 1 Cor. 7:1 Ikechi Chidi Ekpendu, Ph.D Department of Religious Studies, Babcock University Ilishan Remo, Ogun State ABSTRACT There appear to be a misunderstanding or misconstrued idea by some Christians in the reading of 1 Corinthians 7:1. Some understand this text to be a support for Celibacy in Christendom. This has not only masked the true meaning of this text but a different implication has been read into it. The paper sought to inquire on the notion of Celibacy, discover the right interpretation of the text Historical exegetical Method of inquiry was used in this study. It was discovered that the notion of Celibacy in the text is alien when studied in its context, and celibacy and its obligation is not based in this text. Keywords: Celibacy, Exegesis, Misunderstanding. INTRODUCTION Celibacy is the state of voluntarily being unmarried, sexually abstinent, or both, usually for religious reasons. It is often in association with the role of a religious official or devotee.1 In its narrow sense, the term celibacy is applied only to those for whom the unmarried state is the result of a sacred vow, act of renunciation, or religious conviction. In a wider sense, it is commonly understood to only mean abstinence from sexual activity.1 Certain religions have set this practice as the requirement for all members of the clergy and some base their argument on the text of 1 Corinthian 7:1.

  • SCRIPTURE We Believe That the Bible Is the Word of God, Fully Inspired and Without Error in the Original Manuscripts, Written By
    SCRIPTURE We believe that the Bible is the Word of God, fully inspired and without error in the original manuscripts, written by men under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and that it has supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct. The Bible, including all the books of the Old Testament and New Testament, is Holy Scripture and the inspired true word of God. It is fully authoritative and our only absolutely trustworthy guide for life and faith. Furthermore, we affirm the general counsel of the Chicago Statement of Biblical Inerrancy (1978). II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20,21; Mark 13:31; John 8:31,32; John 20:31 THE TRINITY We believe that there is one true, good, and living God who is of one substance, power, and eternal purpose yet eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Trinity is without division of nature, essence, or being (I John 5:7; Matthew 3:16-17; II Corinthians 13:14). The Father is of none, neither begotten, nor proceeding; the Son is eternally begotten of the Father; and the Holy Spirit eternally proceeding from the Father and the Son (John 15:26; Galatians 4:6). The persons of the Trinity are equal in every divine perfection. They execute distinct but harmonious functions in the work of creation, history, providence, and redemption. God the Trinity possesses all life, glory, goodness, and blessedness in and of Himself. Genesis 1:1,26; John 1:1,3; 4:24; 5:26; Matthew 28:19; Acts 7:2; Romans 1:19,20; 9:5; Ephesians 4:5,6; Colossians 2:9 THE FATHER We believe in God the Father, an everlasting, infinite, perfect personal being who is the sovereign and rightful ruler of all that exists.

  • Statement of Faith
    WE BELIEVE the Bible is God's written revelation to man. It is composed of sixty-six books which are divinely inspired and inerrant in all their parts. The Bible is infallible and the final authoritative source for faith and conduct (Psalm 12:6; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21). WE BELIEVE in the Genesis account of creation: that man was created directly in God’s own image and after His own likeness - not by evolution; and that man was created in innocence, but voluntarily sinned. As a consequence, all men are now sinners, inclined to evil, and are under just condemnation without defense or excuse (Genesis 1:1-3:15). WE BELIEVE there is one true and living God, eternally existent in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, coequal, perfect in their attributes, each deserving worship and obedience. God is the Creator and sustainer of all things which He miraculously accomplished by the Word of His power in six literal days (Genesis 1-2; Exodus 31:17; Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 44:24; 48:16; John 1:3; 2 Corinthians 3:18; 13:14; Colossians 1:15; Hebrews 1:2). WE BELIEVE Jesus Christ is the second person of the Trinity who possesses all the divine attributes. He is fully God and fully man. He was conceived miraculously through the virgin birth without losing any of His divine essence. He lived a sinless life out of obedience to the Father. His incarnation was for the purpose of revealing God, redeeming men, and ruling over God's kingdom.

  • 1 Sermon: 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 (See Also 1 Samuel 3:1-10; John 1:43-51
    Sermon: 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 (See also 1 Samuel 3:1-10; John 1:43-51) Today marks our church's return to the book of 1 Corinthians. You may remember that during the last Epiphany season, we studied 1 Corinthians every Sunday. That's because our assigned lectionary readings actually cover almost all of 1 Corinthians during Epiphany, but the readings are divided up over all three years of the lectionary cycle. So this year and (God willing) next year, we will be studying the epistle lessons throughout the Epiphany season, which will all be taken from 1 Corinthians. As a refresher, the New Testament books 1 and 2 Corinthians were written by the Apostle Paul to Christians living in the city of Corinth. Paul had planted a church there during his second missionary journey. Corinth was a port city and a major center of trade in the Roman Empire. Port cities have a tendency to get trashed kind of like hotel rooms. Sailors cruise into town, cause a ruckus while at port, then leave the place behind as somebody else's problem. It's a net gain for the city's economy, but definitely a net loss for the culture. Drunkenness, violence, and prostitution are the norm in cities like Corinth. In addition to all of that, Corinth also hosted a major temple to the goddess Aphrodite. Aphrodite was the Greek goddess of love and beauty, later identified in the Roman pantheon as Venus. As a goddess of love and beauty, worship of Aphrodite frequently incorporated cult prostitution.

  • 1 Corinthians 7-1-9 “A Frank Talk About Sex” Scripture Introduction
    1 Corinthians 7-1-9 “A frank talk about sex” Scripture introduction: After a three month break we are back in the book of 1st Corinthians. And what a text to come back to? In this morning’s text Paul engages in a very open and honest discussion about a very personal and delicate subject. The subject of Sex. Several times this week I wondered why I chose to preach through this book! Commenting on this morning’s text Tim Keller writes, “The bible is a very uncomfortable book for the prudish!” (Keller, 222) So why preach about sex this morning? Because it happens to be the next text in our 1 Corinthians series. This is the beauty of consecutive exposition. The preacher does not chose which topics to preach on the word of God does. Here is what I love about this morning’s passage… the word of God is always relevant. All of us, regardless of our age or gender, are constantly bombarded with the world’s perspective on sex and the world’s perspective is soul destroying. Why not get instruction on sex from the one who created sex? Prayer for illumination: lets pray together… Introduction: When it comes to the topic of sexuality the Corinthians committed two opposite errors. The first error was the error of sexual hedonism… The Corinthians were crazy about sex. Infatuated with sex! Obsessed with sex. Does this sound like our culture? The term “to corinthianize” meant to pursue sexual immorality. The Greek word for “Corinthian girl” was a slang for slut.

  • Statement of Faith
    401 West 205th Street, New York, New York 10034 Statement of Faith 1. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative, inerrant Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21). 2. We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30). 3. We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35), His sinless life (Hebrews 4: 15, 7:26), His miracles (John 2:11), His vicarious and atoning death (1 Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9), His Resurrection (John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:4), His Ascension to the right hand of God (Mark 16:19), His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelation 19:11). 4. We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature, and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ, and that only by God's grace and through faith alone are we saved (John 3:16–19, 5:24; Romans 3:23, 5:8–9; Ephesians 2:8–10; Titus 3:5). 5. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of condemnation (John 5:28–29). 6. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 12:12–13, Galatians 3:26–28).
