Reading: But ye are not in the flesh but ye are in the spirit Romans 8:1-9
Introduction:
This world has comes to us with lies
If you are rich you’ve made it, If have higher education you've made it
If you've a lot of property you’ve made it, what you see is what is there.
If you work hard you will be successful.
Many have found out that that is not true.
1. He knows the two
o The Christian knows that there are two kinds of knowledge
• What he can get from the world
• what he can receiver from God
• He knows where to get each of them from
• and especially he knows how to distinguish them
2. He knows from His Lord which of the two will survive eternity
o The Christian knows that there is a better life in Christ and that the world
system has failed
• Understands that the working of the world is according to the flesh
• The working of the world should be according to the spirit
• He knows the flesh is just using what you have
• The spirit gives us what we should have
3. He is on a growth journey
o Growing in something new that the Lord has provided
• and he can only make it by the providence of God by Jesus Christ
• he is patient and desires to learn and grow in the priceless life given by God
• His source is the word of God
• He is aware how appealing the lies of the world can be
4. That attraction and Goodness can be of the world
o no matter how attractive the world is it is a failed system
• working on what is left of it
• He must embrace with all his ability the new life in Christ.
5. Christianity is above the world system
o it is a system of its own
• It is and cannot be part of the world system
• It came -a gift of God to man
• It is not a good world system.
