All right, you guys ready?

All right, open up to Romans chapter 8, starting in verse 12.

Today, we're going to be talking about a few things.

So let me give you a list of what we're getting into. We're going to talk

about what it means to be led by the spirit, what it means to be led by the spirit. What it means to be led by the spirit? What does

the Bible mean when it talks about being led by the spirit versus maybe what people today often think when they say that.

We'll talk about a couple of tests for whether or not you're saved.

Yeah, a couple of tests or confirmations for whether or not you're really truly a believer.

We'll talk about our motivation for living godly lives and how, what motivates you to follow Jesus

says something about you spiritually.

So we'll talk about that.

And we'll talk about if Christianity is really a relationship with God,

or is that just some new idea that they came up with in the 70s?

Is it really about a relationship with God

or is that a new idea?

And finally, we'll talk about the doctrine of adoption,

the theology of adoption.

And this is all just as we continue our verse by

study of Romans 8. These are just the things that are coming up in the

passage and then of other verses as we'll be going to a lot of

scripture today. So Romans 8 verse 12 it says,

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh to live according to the flesh.
