Transcript

Law

The practice of sin is lawlessness
Romans 6:1-3
Romans 6:1–3 ESV
1 What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? 3 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
Abiding in Christ is the opposite of abiding in sin
John 15:4
John 15:4 ESV
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

Gospel

We are God’s Children
Faith — hope — in Christ is what receives what Christ earned for us on the cross.
What did He earn? Purification of sin.
Look at the kind of Love the Father has for us!
He died for you and rose again.
