TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Romans 7:5-6 - For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. 6 But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends, and welcome back. This is the morning mindset. Hey, I have to, right off the top here, |
| 0:09.5 | I have to give a hat tip or a thank you for the title of this episode to a band called Switchfoot, |
| 0:15.4 | switchwood, wrote a song, had an album years ago named a new way to be human. And it's exactly the topic that we're |
| 0:23.9 | looking at today in Romans chapter 7, verses 5 through 6. So get at your Bibles, get out your morning |
| 0:30.2 | mindset journals. We're going to be digging in in just a moment. First, I wanted to remind you |
| 0:35.1 | that I am also an author. I've written a number of books, |
| 0:39.0 | three of which are a fictional story, a series of books, about a young boy who becomes a dragon slayer. |
| 0:46.6 | So if you have a reader in your family, someone who likes a good story, this series may be of interest to them. |
| 0:53.3 | You can find out more by going to morning |
| 0:55.5 | mindsetmedia.com slash books. All right, before we dive into Romans 7 versus 5 through 6, I want to |

| 1:22.0 | We ask it in His name. Amen. |
| 1:25.3 | Okay, Romans chapter 7, verses 5 through 6. We're kind of coming in in the middle of a discussion |
| 1:30.6 | Paul's been having regarding the role of God's moral law in our lives now that we are believers in Jesus |
| 1:38.0 | Christ. And what he's saying is that the moral law of God, though good, no longer has legal precedence over us. It no longer |
| 1:48.3 | has legal power over us because Jesus fulfilled the law on our behalf. And now when God looks |
| 1:55.7 | at us, he sees us as having perfectly fulfilled the law because we are in Jesus Christ. |
| 2:01.3 | So Romans 7 verses 5 through 6, he says, while we were living in the flesh, he's talking about |
| 2:07.2 | prior to trusting in Jesus, our sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our members |
| 2:14.9 | to bear fruit for death. But now we are released from the law, |
| 2:20.0 | having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the spirit |
